Hi friends,
on my first VPS Debian Jessie and Postfix/Dovecot, and
I've found this error on root mail:
/etc/cron.daily/logrotate:
ERROR Unable to contact server. Is it running?
error: error running non-shared postrotate script for
/var/log/fail2ban.log of '/var/log/fail2ban.log '
run-parts: /etc/cron.daily/logrotate exited with return code 1
Then if I go to /var/log/fail2ban.log it's empty, and only
/var/log/fail2ban.log.1 contains content, but the last of nine days ago.
so I checked if the fail2ban service is active:
service fail2ban status
● fail2ban.service - LSB: Start/stop fail2ban
Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/fail2ban)
Active: active (exited) since mar 2016-11-15 23:10:13 CET; 1 weeks 1
days ago
Process: 7955 ExecStop=/etc/init.d/fail2ban stop (code=exited,
status=0/SUCCESS)
Process: 7963 ExecStart=/etc/init.d/fail2ban start (code=exited,
status=0/SUCCESS)

substitution:

nov 15 23:10:13 server fail2ban[7963]: key : syslog_mail
nov 15 23:10:13 server fail2ban[7963]: rawval :
nov 15 23:10:13 server fail2ban[7963]: failed!
Could you kindly tell me what caused and possibly how to remedy the
problem? :-)
Many many thanks!
