But Is like the you are missing the actual MIB file/OID in the directory you are generating from.

After that “ls” command you issued above, which MIB file are you using? Or is you MIB file there in that list!?

If is not there, then you need to add the MIB file to directory first that contains the OIDs your looking then follow the process to generate the file again. Hope this will help.
