I am finding this error a few times on different scripts when installing on CentOS
byte-compiling /usr/share/fail2ban/server/mytime.py to mytime.pyc
File "/usr/share/fail2ban/server/mytime.py", line 49 @staticmethod ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
Any ideas
Are you sure that you have Python 2.4? Annotations are available since Python 2.4. --Lostcontrol 15:53, 8 May 2007 (CEST)
I got 2.4.3 root@usa2 [~]# python -V Python 2.4.3
I installed 2.5.1 and still the same problem.
Now it is working the version 0.6.2 installed from an RPM. I will try again 0.8.0 but later. Thanks
Can someone tell me why I´m getting these errors with fail2ban?

I´m using Debian Etch
Thanks!
Please use mailing-list for support next time. It seems that your iptables setup (related to fail2ban) get changed while fail2ban is running. Some firewall scripts/apps flush all rules when saving the changes. If fail2ban runs, it will not find its own chains anymore and will try to restore them. --Lostcontrol 09:57, 13 July 2007 (CEST)
Just tried to use latest build 0.8.1 and got thisd output
- fail2ban-client -h
File "/usr/bin/fail2ban-client", line 360 @staticmethod ^

In the FAQ this line is not very clear
"You probably have the sendmail command. Copy /etc/fail2ban/action.d/mail-whois.conf to /etc/fail2ban/action.d/mail-whois.local, edit this file and replace mail with sendmail. Here is an example:"
which is "this" file mail-whois.local is what it sounds like
That's correct. You have to edit mail-whois.local. --Lostcontrol 10:17, 13 September 2007 (CEST)
