csf.deny not updating

[mauinet]

On Sept 6, csf.deny stopped updating. The only entries now in the file are the 15 manually entered lines. We have not changed any settings since the 6th. Just now updated to 7.15 but the csf.deny still is not changing. The lfd.log is updating ok. I restarted both lfd & csf but still not working. Where can I look for troubleshooting this?

Thank you,

I have heard nothing on this yet. Still no new entries to csf.deny since 9/6/2014. Normally, it has been updating every few minutes. Now all the spammers are no longer getting blocked and we are inundated with spam. How can we resolve this?

Thank you,

Have you tried re-installing csf ? Usually sorts out some errors for me .

Back up your configuration first ..

Hello,
Thanks for the suggestion. I tried that but still the csf.deny file is not updated. The lfd.log updates and csf.blocklist. This is resulting in spammers not being blocked and now a severe spamming problem on the server.
