I'm trying to install DA on Debian 5.0.8 64bit, ive done dozens of installs but this one always fails. Its a freshly installed OS and this is what i get:

I'm thinking it should be looking in another folder but doesnt for some reason?
 
I dont think you understand me?

What do you think i'm doing wrong here, to point me to the install guide? I've installed directadmin for like 100 times now if not more.

It _SHOULD_ of get pulled from that link but it doesnt! The script tries to download it from 5.0.8 which doesnt exist.

Maybe because 5.0.8 came out just a few days ago and DA isnt supporting it yet?
 
It got installed on debian 5.0.7 a few days ago so i really believe it has something to do with the version number?

EDIT: I tried changing /etc/debian_version to 5.0.7 from 5.0.8 and restarted the install:

This must be a bug!

I would just email directadmin support to update setup.sh

Unless you feel comfortable editing setup.sh yourself to add in the 5.0.8 version.

I have a similar problem, can not connect to files4.directadmin.com, and the installation is aborted.
My OS is Debian 5.0 32bit.
Does DirectAdmin server has some problems?
I've never had problems with the installation.

What to do?
