CSF user interface in DirectAdmin do not work

[micheld]

Hi,

I've been using directadmin on centos 7 for a while. I just installed the CSF firewall. This works with csf -ra and csftest.pl but I don't see the web interface in directdmin. I see the plugin that it is active. Searching the forum didn't find a solution.

When i try to change the plugin the say:
Unable to read /usr/local/directadmin/plugins/csf/plugin.conf : Unable to open /usr/local/directadmin/plugins/csf/plugin.conf for reading.

csf -u
csf is already at the latest version: v14.10
I use the last directadmin version. I already reboot the server.

Best regards,
Michel

Did you install CSF via ./install_directadmin.sh command? If not, try again this way, you can just overwrite it.

The plugin should show up in the admin section. Also check if you maybe have protected perl usage which can also sometimes create odd behaviour of this plugin.

It was already an existing server. So I installed it like this and the plugin is visible.


wget http://files.directadmin.com/services/all/csf/csf_install.sh
945 /bin/sh ./csf_install.sh

With an existing server it doesn't hurt to run ./install_directadmin.sh again?

As far as I know it shouldn't hurt. However, if you do it as you did it's also fine. Getting it directly from DA as you did should take care of the same settings if I'm correct. Maybe even better if you used the auto install on installation of the server.
