Is there any reason why my sshd ipset group would disappear? I believe it was working, now it gets this error


2019-08-18 03:23:50,924 fail2ban.actions [4381]: NOTICE [sshd] Ban 188.166.7.24 2019-08-18 03:23:51,041 fail2ban.action [4381]: ERROR ipset add fail2ban-sshd 188.166.7.24 timeout 7776000 -exist -- stdout: '' 2019-08-18 03:23:51,042 fail2ban.action [4381]: ERROR ipset add fail2ban-sshd 188.166.7.24 timeout 7776000 -exist -- stderr: 'ipset v6.38:
The set with the given name does not exist\n'

My jail.local has this:

[sshd]
# more restrictive mode
mode = ddos
#port    = ssh
port    = ssh,534
logpath = %(sshd_log)s
enabled = true
# attempts
maxretry=4
# 4 hours
findtime=14400
# 4 days
bantime  = 345600

It appears that login failure attempts appear in fail2ban log, and "fail2ban-client reload sshd" works but it doesn't create an ipset group apprarently.

Any ideas what could be wrong?

Should I try to manually create the ipset group? what would be the command for that?



I don't want to restart all of fail2ban and have a million ban messages spam me.
