Snort not running after update 9.709-3

Is IPS disabled or showing any issues in the log file for it besides what you posted? Are you doing any kind of direct database output for snort? 

IPS itself is turned off only things in use are anti port scan and DoS / Flooding. No direct database output is configured.
To be honest I don't even know how I could dump stuff to a database using UTM 9.

Hallo and welcome to the UTM Community!

What result do you get from the following at the command line?

     ll /var/chroot-snort/etc/snort/rules/astaro.rules

If there's something there, then I think Amodin hit the nail on the head by asking if IPS is disabled.

It says access denied no such file or directory. Like I said before IPS is indeed turned off and not in use.
Thought I had already answered last week but forgot to press reply button :(

My brain keeps going back to the question then:  "If IPS is disabled, why would this be an issue for you?"

So what would happen then if you enable IPS? I wouldn't think Snort would update if it's not in use.

Ah okay I do understand. Thanks for open my eyes.I thought there would be any inpact on the running machine

I think you might have needed to execute that command as root.
