All pages of my server coming up as 'forbidden' and errors present in bouncer log

Hi
I installed traefik bouncer and crowdsec containers on my unraid server but all server pages come up as forbidden. When i check the bouncer log, i see the following error every time i hit a page from my server

{"level":"warn","error":"invalid character 'p' after top-level value","time":"2023-06-17T17:13:50-07:00","message":"An error occurred while checking IP \"\""}
