no port scanner was enabled during the scan

Subject: no port scanner was enabled during the scan
Date: Mon, 18 Feb 2008 10:13:07 +0100 
Hello

I use nessus in text mode like this:
echo "2" | /usr/bin/nessus -q -T html_graph nessus_server 1241 nessus_user 
password $HOME/target_$TARGET_NET $HOME/results_$TARGET-$DATE

The problem is that after receiving results for each host i receive warning:
WARNING : no port scanner was enabled during the scan. This may
lead to incomplete results

i have plugin:
#ls -al /usr/lib/nessus/plugins/nmap.nasl
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 17510 Feb 18 09:03 /usr/lib/nessus/plugins/nmap.nasl

also:
scanner scan # cat /etc/nessus/nessusd.conf |grep default
# 'default' means that Nessus will scan ports found in its
port_range = default

nmap is working (from command line). No related errors in logs file.
I use nessusd 2.2.6.
Why nmap (or any other scanner) is not used ?

Thanx
