Hello... I have followed ure instructions in order to set up my account and all but i am getting some error when it comes to inserting my domain (www.trajcek.com) into the DomainAdministration thing. When i try inserting it it says a domain like that already exists.

Thats on STEP1 - 4th thing :
http://www.directadmin.com/newinstall.html

Thanx a bunch guys,
trajcek
 
DA will not let you set up a domain that's the same as the server hostname.

What's your domain?

What's the server hostname?
 
Well, i use RoseHosting and they have provided me with DA and evrything. Now, they made www.trajcek.com the main account probably... SHould i get another domain or something ??? And how can i make when u go on www.trajcek.com to show my stuff then ?

Thanx. :)
 
Is the whole server yours? If not, and if you can't create your owndomain name, then your provider has to fix it for you.

If the server is yours and the hostname is the same as the domain you want to use, then you must change your hostname. I believe instructions are posted on these forums.

Yeah the server is mine. I bought a VirtualPrivateServer from them, and also i searched for the instructions but i cant find them...

Edit: i got how to change the hostname. What should i change it to... I mean, i need new domain or...

For example, if your domain is example.com, and your main website is at www.example.com, you could change your hostname to "daserver.example.com".

Be sure to change it through the control panel so everything necesssary to change gets changed.
