After updating to latest fail2ban, FPBX 14 dashboard indicates it is not running even though it is

Anyone else have this problem.

Generic FreePBX v14 on CE7 updated to latest stable FPBX modules.

Before yum update I was running fail2ban-server.noarch 0:0.10.4-1.el7
FPBX v14 dashboard shows fail2ban running

After yum update I am running fail2ban-server.noarch 0:0.10.5-2.el7
And now FreePBX dashboard says fail2ban is not running. But it is still running like it was before the yum update.

systemctl status fail2ban

* fail2ban.service - Fail2Ban Service
   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/fail2ban.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled)

   CGroup: /system.slice/fail2ban.service
           `-27157 /usr/bin/python -s /usr/bin/fail2ban-server -xf start

Of course I tried fwconsole chown and rebooted etc.

I can confirm that downgrading the fail2ban packages resolves this for me. So something must have changed in the newer version that trips up fpbx detection.

 wget https://extras.getpagespeed.com/redhat/7/noarch/RPMS/fail2ban-0.10.4-1.el7.noarch.rpm
 wget https://extras.getpagespeed.com/redhat/7/noarch/RPMS/fail2ban-sendmail-0.10.4-1.el7.noarch.rpm
 wget https://extras.getpagespeed.com/redhat/7/noarch/RPMS/fail2ban-server-0.10.4-1.el7.noarch.rpm
 wget https://extras.getpagespeed.com/redhat/7/noarch/RPMS/fail2ban-firewalld-0.10.4-1.el7.noarch.rpm

yum downgrade fail2ban-0.10.4-1.el7.noarch.rpm fail2ban-server-0.10.4-1.el7.noarch.rpm fail2ban-firewalld-0.10.4-1.el7.noarch.rpm fail2ban-sendmail-0.10.4-1.el7.noarch.rpm
