CentOS 4 ?

CentOS doesn't include the keys; you have to import them separately.

You'll need to change your /etc/redhat-release file so it says:

White Box Enterprise Linux release 3.0 (Liberation Respin 2)

for the RHEL 3 version of DA to install on CentOS 4.

Note we've NOT tested DA with CentOS/WBEL4/RHEL4, and we make no representations that it will or won't work.

I've installed DA with Centos 4.0
there were only some small problems; Exim didnt seem to work.
I used a solution John gave elsewhere in the forum:
Code:
wget [url]http://files.directadmin.com/services/da_exim-4.50-2.src.rpm[/url]
rpmbuild --rebuild da_exim-4.42-1.src.rpm
cd /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386
rpm -ivh --force da_exim-4.42-1.i386.rpm

An other problem was with the imap.
I noticed it when I tried squirrelmail, I got the following error:
ERROR : Connection dropped by imap-server.
When i tried telnet localhost 143 it got the following error:
Code:
error while loading shared libraries: 
libcom_err.so.3: cannot open shared object file: 
No such file or directory
I solved it with the following:
Code:
ln -s /usr/lib/libcom_err.so /usr/lib/libcom_err.so.3

Untill now it's working like a charm
 
Its been about 10 days since the last post. Can anyone who has installed DA & CentOS4 report back on any new issues you may have discovered during use? I'm going to give this a try soon.

I have it running for about 1 week now, no problems other then reported in this threat with also the sollutions. Works fine here. Everything needed to know can be found on this forum, just seach for centos.
 
Thats good to hear. I'm going to give it a go this weekend. I'll let you know if I have any new problems.
 
Make sure you have xinetd installed, if not use:

yum install xinetd

and then use this script you can see in others posts:

rm -f /usr/sbin/imapd
cd /usr/local/directadmin/scripts
./imapd.sh

Also check if you have your lookback interface up:

ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1

And try again, that should be enough.

Is Centos 4 officially out ! Does any one else got that Exim problem as the user specified.
I don't know if DA staff has ever marked it official but it's working fine for us and we've installed it on lots of servers. In fact I finished one tonight and I have another to do either tonight or first thing tomorrow.

No problems.
