what else should i check ??

[zEitEr]

There's nothing about Directadmin failure to start.

Check logs within the path /var/log/directadmin/*

We met a problem with dovecot installation with directadmin installing.
Try:


cd /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild
./build update
./build dovecot
./build todovecot

I've done your guide, but still i cannot xs the DA control panel ....

here the log from errortaskq.log from /var/log/directadmin/

[zEitEr]

I'm glad you've done it.

Did you solve a problem with starting Directadmin?

[frednoob]

now my DA running ok for today...... hope no more problem ....

For everyone running CentOS and Red Hat Enterprise Linux: Do NOT run SELinux in enforce mode. Either disable it or run it in logging mode.
