Intrusion Prevention Rule Compilation Failed

Details

This is a known issue with doing a local upgrade of DSA. When performing a local upgrade, plugins may not upgrade at the same time.

As a workaround, perform a fresh install of the DSA using the latest DSA build.

To prevent this kind of issue in the future, it is recommended that a local upgrade is only done if there are some limitation in the environment. For normal scenarios, the upgrade should be deployed using DSM.
