Hi,

I found my csf error and its unable to start, everytime i try to start it from whm or console, it always failed. even i have turned off the faststart function,

Here is the error message :
You have an unresolved error when starting csf:
Error: iptables command [/sbin/iptables -v -A INVALID -m state --state INVALID -j INVDROP] failed, you appear to be missing a required iptables module, at line 1508 in /usr/sbin/csf

Does anyone ever had the same issue.?
I need help please :)

Try running perl /etc/csf/csftest.pl in the console.

Since you appear to be on a VPS, your server provider would need to enable the required modules on the host node.
