Public bug reported: Binary package hint: fail2ban
Installing fail2ban 0.8.2-2 under Hardy doesn't create the directory /var/run/fail2ban/ . As a result, the program cannot create it's .sock and .pid files in the default locations. This means it cannot run, and when run with /etc/init.d/fail2ban start simply reports "failed" or nothing at all. /etc/init.d/fail2ban status then says "fail2ban is not running" ** Affects: fail2ban (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Confirmed -- Installing fail2ban doesn't create /var/run/fail2ban directory https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/234076 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
