make sure your crond is running. if there is no issue with crond. Try

/usr/local/directadmin/dataskq d

see if that give you any error

[Puma]

/usr/local/directadmin/dataskq d

with this command, it is ok, but it is manually...

Did you check the /etc/cron.d/directadmin_cron file?

i have this :


* * * * * root /usr/local/directadmin/dataskq
2 0-23/6 * * * root echo 'action=vacation&value=all' >> /usr/local/directadmin/data/task.queue;
10 0 * * * root echo 'action=tally&value=all' >> /usr/local/directadmin/data/task.queue
20 4 1 * * root echo 'action=reset&value=all' >> /usr/local/directadmin/data/task.queue
0 4 * * * root echo 'action=check&value=license' >> /usr/local/directadmin/data/task.queue

i precise that this error is since the reinstallation of the OS debian with directadmin. A bug with the lastest debian OS?

[ranz]

I doubt a cron problem instigates reinstalltion of an entire OS ... perhaps request support at debian.org and directadmin.
