Check /etc/fail2ban/
You should have a file named paths-common.conf
Make a copy of the file and name it paths-common.local
open the file and search for sshd
If you don't find sshd_log add:
Code:
sshd_log = %(syslog_authpriv)s
If you don't find sshd_backend also add:
Code:
sshd_backend = %(default_backend)s
Restart fail2ban and see if that helps
