Yesterday I did a reboot of a long running system and updating DA and AlmaLinux 8.1.

Afterwards the Dashboard of DA is not running. The database and webserver is running, the customers are online.

I received the following error:

● directadmin.service - DirectAdmin Web Control Panel
Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/directadmin.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled)

Did you updated your Almalinux box lately?

What you get when you run
Code: 
journalctl -xe

Check for errors

Code: 
/var/log/directadmin/error.log
/var/log/directadmin/system.log
/var/log/messages

You could update or rebuild all if needed

Code: 
da build update_full

Code: 
da build all

Yes, I did. The second quote is from journalctl -xe

/var/log/directadmin/system.log
nothing relevant

/var/log/directadmin/error.log
empty
 
Try the update command mentioned above. and or update the box as well.

Code: 
dnf check-update
dnf update
 
What do you see when you issue the command:
ldd /usr/local/directadmin/directadmin

Also look in your /var/log/directadmin directory for any errors in the log files located there, especially the most recent files.
