Hi Seckin,

 

TMOS 15.x is End of Life TMOS SW  its best to get your lab updated to 17.x.     Have you tried to create the VS without an iApp and see if that makes a difference.  Sometimes with iApp's the way they can be quirky with nested objects in folders..   Can you try the full path with the admd command:  admd -s vs./Common/dvwa.app/dvwa_vs+/Common/dvwa.app/dvwa_BaDoS.info.learning

 

For Traffic Learning have you attempted a good amount of good traffic? Apache Bench can help generate a large number of requests,  while you run that can you tail dos log and see if its generating learning entries?  

tail -f /var/log/dosl7/dosl7d.log

 

Might be worth removing/re-adding the Dos Profile to the VS and re-run the admd command, restart if needed.  Some things to try
