Hi,

The directory /var/run/fail2ban is on tmpfs, and the init script used
on ubuntu (typically added by the packager) is supposed to create the
directory when you start the daemon.

If you want to install f2b by hand (which apparently you did, since
none of the debian/ubuntu sources listed on
http://www.fail2ban.org/wiki/index.php/Downloads has 0.9.3 packages),
you'll need to handle all the requirements also yourself.

Probably the easiest fix is to grab the ubuntu init script from github
and use that with your custom install.

If you *did* use a ready-made ubuntu package to install f2b 0.9.3,
then please tell us where you got it, so we know what we're talking
about ;)

Regards,
        Tom
