Hello, I've just tried to install DirectAdmin on debian 4.0 and the installation says it succeded but says : "can't open /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf" twice. I can log into directadmin at IP:2222 but it says httpd is down. What am I supposed to do?

My /etc/httpd/conf folder only contains ips.conf ...
 
Ok I've reinstalled debian to be sure nothing was wrong, still the same error.

So I tried a /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild/build all

And I get the following message :
Backing up certificate and key, and turning off httpd for DirectAdmins's check.
*** Cannot find /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild/httpd-2.2.6.tar.gz. Aborting ***

Do I have to seperatly download apache from apache's site?
 
Here goes again,
I got the httpd file from an apache mirror
But when I do ./build all
I get some errors like :


make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/directadmin/custombuild/httpd-2.2.6'
Restoring certificate and key, and turning on httpd for DirectAdmins's check.
cp: cannot stat `/usr/local/directadmin/custombuild/httpd_2_debian': No such file or directory
chmod: cannot access `/etc/init.d/httpd': No such file or directory
update-rc.d: /etc/init.d/httpd: file does not exist

It seems that loads of files are missing ! I would like to do a clean install, do I have to create a new folder /user/local/directadmin/custombuild before installing directadmin and put httpd-2.2.6 in it as well as httpd_2_debian ? if so where can I get httpd_2_debian?
 
at the end of the installation (./build all) I get :

Cannot find /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild/autoconf-2.61.tar.gz

In my /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild/ folder I have only got :
build
configure
options
options.conf

plus (added)
httpd-2-2.6
httpd-2-2.2.6.tar.gz

I guess I am supposed to have alot more files ... where can I get them? and what files should I have ?
 
Thanks :)

I contacted their support, and as I was missing all the files they suggested to try :

./build update_data

it worked like a charm and downloaded all the missing filles

I've just launched a ./build all and will see if all is well installed :)
 
Everything now works fine, I'm now working on getting everything translated :)
 
Hehe, thats fine. Maybe you should first google for free available DirectAdmin language packs. I know some people have these (but i dont know if they are free to download)..
