Hello,

I am trying to add a rule to block access for specific file (bannerclick.php), but error after trying to publish rule Error: The system could not deploy the configuration file "modsec/modsec2.user.conf". Review the WHM error_log file for more details about the error.

 

SecRule REQUEST_URI "@contains bannerclick.php" \
    "id:9999999,\
    phase:1,\
    deny,\
    msg:'File blocked by policy',\
    status:403,\
    severity:'CRITICAL',\
    log"

  Already resolved, The rule is fine. 
  For some reason when ticking the box "Deploy and Restart Apache" it fails, but go back to main page and deploy worked.
