Re: [Update 0.9.6] fail2ban crash server

Any related error in server log files?
Try to temporarily disable fail2ban service, and try again.

Re: [Update 0.9.6] fail2ban crash server

Hello,

It seems to be no error between the logs. The fail2ban log appears to be empty. Indeed fail2ban disabling the server sends and receives emails properly and does not seem to go down.

What is the problem in your opinion? How do I re-enable fail2ban order not to crash it all?

Check /etc/fail2ban/jail.local. It scans log files and extract failures, then call iptables to block the bad clients.

Until yesterday has always functioned properly. Today with the update we've changed just the dovecoat rule of fail2ban. It could be the problem?
