ConfigServer Community Forum

Hi. When I try to open my ConfigServer firewall from plugins list (Extra features) in DirectAdmin. I get this error:

```
ConfigServer Security & Firewall

Security Error: Invalid parent
Information saved to [/var/lib/csf/da1644943308.error]
```

I looked at that error file and found this (IP ommited):

```
[root@alpha ~]# cat /var/lib/csf/da1644928660.error
To disable DirectAdmin session checks, create a touch file called /var/lib/csf/csf.da.skip

Any ideas what happened and how to fix it?

DirectAdmin support told me to contact CSF support...

Thanks!

Hello.
For me the update and reboot of Master server helped to solve this issue. (DirectAdmin with firewall is on VPS, which is on that master server)
