I had to disable csrutil (using Terminal in Recovery Mode) and now I cannot re-enable it the same way. I get an error in Terminal that says csrutil cannot be run from the OS. However, this is after I successfully ran it to disable. What's happening?!! Thanks for any suggestions.

You can re-enable SIP from a normal boot by running this command in the Terminal…
sudo csrutil clear
Once you run the command you will be prompted to restart.

You must be booted into Recovery Mode to re-enable SIP. You mentioned recovery mode for disabling SIP, but did not for re-enabling SIP.

Would appear to be the article you are referring to. If it does not work as documented, I would submit a bug report to http://bugreporter.apple.com/ Please note bugs that are reported there are subject to the non-disclosure agreement you signed when you registered for Apple Developer.

Thanks for the reply. Yes I am booting into recovery mode to do the csrenable. I get the error message which I described and I don't understand why it's not re-enabling. The disable was easy enough.
Don't know if you meant to reply to me or not but you're welcome. My post was the command you use to re-enable SIP without being in Recovery Mode.
