could not locate nse_main.lua
QUITTING!

Found out that the requestet env from nmap.cc:2826

if (!foundsomething && (dirptr = getenv("NMAPDIR"))) {

can't find $NMAPDIR.

After env NMAPDIR=/PATH/TO/FOLDER/WITH/nse_main.lua it's working.

I'm glad you figured it out. Setting the environment variable should
only be required in unusual circumstances though. How did you configure
the build?
