fail2ban not reading the jails

Hi all,
For some reason the same config that is under jail.local on other servers and working fine into this server is not working at all.
See output below:

Code:

@uk1:~$ sudo fail2ban-client version
1.0.2
@uk1:~$ sudo fail2ban-client ping
Server replied: pong
@uk1:~$ cat /etc/fail2ban/jail.local
[pure-ftpd]
enabled = true
port = ftp
filter = pure-ftpd
logpath = /var/log/syslog
maxretry = 10
bantime = 1d

[dovecot]
enabled = true
filter = dovecot
logpath = /var/log/mail.log
maxretry = 10
bantime = 1d

[postfix-sasl]
enabled = true
port = smtp
filter = postfix[mode=auth]
logpath = /var/log/mail.log
maxretry = 10
bantime = 1d

@uk1:~$ sudo fail2ban-client status postfix-sasl
2024-07-01 20:22:52,908 fail2ban                [1716072]: ERROR   NOK: ('postfix-sasl',)
Sorry but the jail 'postfix-sasl' does not exist
@uk1:~$

 

For some reason after a few restarts it worked....
