Getting daily csf failed alert from the server

[lakshmynarayananv]

Hi Team,

We are getting daily alert from the servers that the csf is failed. When we check, the error would be like

Error: Error processing command for line [329] (6 times): [Another app is currently holding the xtables lock. Perhaps you want to use the -w option?], at line 329 in /usr/sbin/csf

Its a centos6 + cpanel server. There are no other applications holding the IPtables. This is very frequent and we have to remove the csf.error and restart csf.

We upgraded CSF to the latest version. Any idea what is causing this? Its not just one server, but many are there.

Regards,

Getting same issue.

\Error: Error processing command for line [329] (6 times): [Another app is currently holding the xtables lock. Perhaps you want to use the -w option?], at line 329 in /usr/sbin/csf

Centos7 _ cpanel.

Do you use any other Firewall app?
