Hi, Brother,
I have an very urgent case want you to help. When I have a fresh DA installation. And then I install Dovecot. I cannot access DA control panel.
When I type URL http://server.ip:2222 It just show something like the website doesn't exist. But I type URL http://server.ip it show "Apache is functioning normally"
I restart the directadmin:
[root@da ~]# service directadmin start
Starting DirectAdmin: [ OK ]

But DA control panel cannot work too. and I type:
[root@da ~]# service directadmin status
directadmin dead but pid file exists

[root@da ~]# ps aux |grep directadmin
root 2505 0.0 0.0 1088 188 ? Ss 03:24 0:00 /usr/local/directadmin/da-popb4smtp
nobody 3489 0.0 0.0 8380 1704 ? Ss 03:37 0:00 /usr/local/directadmin/dataskq
root 3531 0.0 0.0 3980 712 pts/0 R+ 03:37 0:00 grep directadmin

And I have check all the /var/log/directadmin/* log file. It doesn't show any error message.
What can I do? I am so nervous now.Thank You.!!

/etc/init.d/directadmin restart
file /var/lock/subsys/directadmin

Show me the output :)
 
I just tried a CentOS 5 install, with both the custom PHP5/Apache2 custom, and the regular, neither will start and fail at the following output:
*************************************
* *
* All parts have been installed *
* *
*************************************

Type: /sbin/service httpd restart
cp: `/var/www/html/squirrelmail/data' and `/var/www/html/squirrelmail-1.4.13/data' are the same file
./install.sh: line 223: ./directadmin: cannot execute binary file
./install.sh: line 226: ./directadmin: cannot execute binary file


Not sure if it's related to the OP above.
 
Usually when new installs fail it's something as basic as an incorrect license. Best to contact DirectAdmin sales.
