Ssl – fail2ban hanging on creating SSL Certificates all day

I tried installing fail2ban today on my ubuntu 16.04 server. It seemed to install correctly. Unfortunately, this command has been running now for over 3 hours.

Creating/Updating SSL(for TLS) information
Creating /etc/mail/tls/starttls.m4...
Creating SSL certificates for sendmail.

This is my first AWS EC2 Ubuntu box, so all this technology is extremely new to me. I'm not quite sure how to handle this situation.
This is the information it has posted to the console just prior to this hanging.

    Setting up sendmail-bin (8.15.2-3) ...
    Updating sendmail environment ...
    Reading configuration from /etc/mail/sendmail.conf.

    Reading configuration from /etc/mail/sendmail.conf.

    Creating /etc/mail/databases...

    Checking filesystem, this may take some time - it will not hang!
      ...   Done.

    Checking for installed MDAs...
    sasl2-bin not installed, not configuring sendmail support.

    To enable sendmail SASL2 support at a later date, invoke "/usr/share/sendmail/update_auth"

I'm not quite sure what to do here, whether it be stop fail2ban cancel the process? Like I said, this is my first ubuntu box so any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
