DA keeps loading?

[MikeVrind]

Hi,

When I trie to login into DA, I don't see the login form.
The page keeps loading for ever and ever while every website on the server works just fine.

This morning it worked just fine until our own IP adress got blacklisted.
I removed our IP from the blacklist and searched the DA forums for a 'whitelist' file because I didn't see one in '/usr/local/directadmin/data/admin/'.
I found out that a whitelist file was added some time ago but because I dnd't saw the file, i created it manualy. But when I tried to login back to DA the page just kept on loading.

I'm running the latest DA version on a Debian5 machine.
How could I solve this issue?

I also tried (re)starting DA manualy:
/$ /etc/init.d/directadmin restart
Stopping DirectAdmin: [ FAILED ]
Starting DirectAdmin: [ OK ]

But this didn't work.

Check /var/log/directadmin/error.log.

This file is empty.

DA isn't running and won't start.

are you using csf firewall on directadmin?

error log should be empty if da dont start...

look into the forum there should be the command line for start directadmin in debug mode
