I am a superuser and I get a "has unexpected text" error when I try to modify any existing security policy.

Can you provide some details about the policy? Sounds like you have a special character or a space in a field that does not support them

@amy.hazelwood

Usually this is caused because firewall cannot reference one of the parameter in the policy.

Since you mentioned that this is happening for pretty much all the policies please do check the parameter such as zones or log forwarding profiles are present on the firewall.

I checked the configurations and they looked correct, so I contacted tech support and they said it was a bug in 9.0.5, so I am upgrading now. Thanks for your response!
