I had the same issue, but it's not actually hanging - there is just no output to STDOUT.
If you are at that screen and type a username > enter > password > enter > confirm password > enter, you will start to see output.
It is definitely buggy though. Further steps have no output either.
Running on CentOS 6.3 Stable.

Usually thats caused by the terminal you're using to log into the system not supporting the full character set or setting the wrong type. ASL-lite is going away real soon anyway, so I wouldn't spend too much time on it any more.

I ended up going with the 30 day trial of ASL.
Thanks.

Scott:
For those of us who use asl-lite on some systems while using the full ASL on other systems, is there going to be a replacement for the ASL-lite functionality?
Thanks.

Yup, its going to be replaced by AUM. ASL users have access to that now.

so I just installed a 30day trial asl-lite and if get this issue and I'm on fedora 17/kde using konsole to login to a fresh install of centos 6.3 - how would I fix it?

so I guess 'real soon' isnt quite here yet, but its hard to spend any time on it at all if it doesnt work!
or maybe there's something I missed?

Keep in mind that asl-lite is not a supported product, its a free tool we provide. If you want a supported product for managing modsecurity, use ASL.

thanks for reply

well altho it was my intention to pay, the 'free' part is correct so far.
But the 'tool' part implies some useful functionality, rather than a waste of my time.
Anyway leaving the semantics aside... I signed up for a 30 day trial of this:
https://www.atomicorp.com/products/modsecurity.html
So is asl-lite not supported as part of that offering?
and if not: are the real time rules just manual install and update?

Thanks for the question. Yes, rules only licenses are Do It Yourself. We provide our rules for our partners and customers that can build and support their own WAFs. Instructions for setting up the rules are provided at the URL below:
https://www.atomicorp.com/wiki/index.ph ... rity_Rules
If you need a solution that sets this up for you and support for your WAF, then you will want to use Atomic Secured Linux (ASL). ASL includes the WAF, GUI, Event Manager, Rule updater, SIM, Rule Manager, IDS/IPS, Reverse Proxy and everything else and sets everything up for your automatically.
