Bocacom typically handles the DA installs prior to releasing a new server... did they not set this one up?

[Seth]

No they did not.

I'd contact Jim - see if he can help you out with this.

[Seth]

This is an install I have done on a test machine. I am just wondering if anyone has come accross this or may have a quick resolution for it.

[Seth]

I belive in my lic order I chose the wrong OS, would this have anything to do with it? :-(

[hostpc.com]

Oh yeah, probably. I'd e-mail them to have that corrected asap.

SENT! thanks Joe

Type:

cd /usr/local/directadmin
ldd directadmin

check for the libssl.so.5 library.. it will likely say "not found".

Search your system for any "libssl.so.*" files by running:

locate libssl.so

(you may need to run "updatedb" first).

if you find a libsso.so file for a different vesrion, eg, /lib/libssl.so.6 (or libssl.so.4), then type:

cd /lib
ln -s libssl.so.6 libssl.so.5

Then finish the install by running:

cd /usr/local/directadmin
./directadmin i
./directadmin p

Thank you to John!

Why would this thread by specific to Bocacom? If it is, it's probably in the wrong subforum.

Seth's signature line had "Servers by Bocacom" - so I responded. It ends up assisting anyone, so I dont see a reason to move it.

(his signature has apparently been edited since this last post)

[Seth]

I removed the signature so nobody would become confused.

I am installing on FC 5 while my license says FC 4. but during the instgallation DA confirms that it is installing on FC 5. Do I have to contact DA to update my license information?

Everything goes fine during the installation and then this error message shows up:

i have installed yum install libssl and finds nothing more to install.

i went to cd /usr/local/directadmin and tried to start
./directadmin i
and it still fails with following error:

./directadmin: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I am installing this through ssh.
Has somebody installed it on FC 5?
