Hey, I had a similar issue with the active response not working as 
intended. The way I solved it was to add the following to the ossec.conf 

<ossec_config>

 <client>

   <server-ip>ossec-server</server-ip>

 </client>

<active-response>

 <repeated_offenders>30,60,120,240,480</repeated_offenders>

</active-response>

<global>

 <email_notification>no</email_notification>

</global>

kind regards,
Fredrik
