The last part of the command line suri/ is interpreted as a bpf as its not preceded by an option flag. Did you mean to use -l?

i mean by suri/ the destination directory for log files.
should i remove this part from the command line?
im using suricata 6.0.10.

thank you sir. got zero errors after removing the last part of the command line (suri/) as you specified.
