Since today fail2ban not working

Azurel

Silver Pleskian
Not sure, maybe latest yum or plesk-update stopped working fail2ban in Plesk with CentOS 6.7 (Final)? In plesk ip banning is "off" and I can't set it "on".

I get this email today

/etc/cron.daily/logrotate:

ERROR Failed to access socket path: /var/run/fail2ban/fail2ban.sock. Is fail2ban running?

I checked it in putty:
# fail2ban-client status
ERROR Failed to access socket path: /var/run/fail2ban/fail2ban.sock. Is fail2ban running?
path "/var/run/fail2ban" is empty

Try to start:
# /etc/init.d/fail2ban start
Starting fail2ban: WARNING 'syslogsocket' not defined in 'Definition'. Using default one: 'auto'
WARNING 'dbfile' not defined in 'Definition'. Using default one: '/var/lib/fail2ban/fail2ban.sqlite3'
WARNING 'dbpurgeage' not defined in 'Definition'. Using default one: 86400

ERROR No section: 'Definition'
ERROR No section: 'Definition'
ERROR Unable to read the filter

Can anyone help here? I use Plesk 12.0.18 Update #70(today), not working since #68

Restart the server not help here.
