My website won't load when Fail2Ban is turned on. How do I fix it?

I installed fail2ban following the guide in the documentation and my website won't load. When I turn it off my website will load. How do I fix that?

I followed the guide. I created a fail2ban.local file and a jail.local file. Localhost was already set to ingnore localhost IP and I added my home IP address, both IPv4 and IPv6, and I added my linode IP address. In Jail.local under [sshd] mode = normal, enabled = true, port = ssh, and logpath = %(sshdlog)s backend = %(sshdbackend)s.
