Issue Web Application Firewall - Can't change to "Comodo (free)" [modsecurity_ctl: failed]?

Basic Pleskian
Hi,

I'm trying to set my rule sets to "Comodo (free)" but I keep on receiving the following error. Does anyone know how to resolve this issue? This used to work fine before but now I'm having this issue all of sudden.

Code:
modsecurity_ctl failed: ERROR:root:Error
Traceback (most recent call last):

Thank you!
 
@IgorG I've tried this doesn't seem to work. I get the following response below and then when I try to set to "Comodo (free)" I get the same error.


Thank you!
 
In this case, I can suggest only contact Plesk Support Team.
