You could try a manual update. I think the skin files are updates/redownloaded during this process.

Extraxt the file I've attached to this post in the /usr/local/directadmin/skins/ directory. It is the default skin provided by DirectAdmin.

Delete whatever is left of the default skin in /usr/local/directadmin/skins and run the extraction again:


cd /usr/local/directadmin/skins
rm -rf default*
download file using wget
tar -zxf default.tar.gz

Oh. You can change that in /usr/local/directadmin/data/users/USERNAME/user.conf

Changing the docsroot back to the default directory and the name of skin I think.
