Description

There is an issue if there are ampty lines in any rule file , when running Suricata under Windows - it is reported as a rule parsing err:
[4688] 11/11/2011 -- 11:04:39 - (flow.c:954) <Info> (FlowInitConfig) -- flow memory usage: 1844288 bytes, maximum: 33554432

but those are actually empty lines.

Also -
If suricata.log is enabled it still reports the same thing , but it reports the line number correctly as opposed to win cmd output:
