DirectAdmin 1.678

Thanks @gate2vn. We usually add automatic migrations to make sure new API endpoints are automatically available if the old ones were available. However there is missing migration that automatically adds access to the search API if user had access to CMD_AJAX_SEARCH. We will add it and release as a hot-fix.
 
An update to the 1.678 release is pushed out. Key changes:

* Fixed a bug in admin Change Passwords page. It used to load only the first 50 user account names for the user search.
* Extended CustomBuild RoundCube installer to allow customising the ./program directory the same way as it used to be customisable before.
* Add migration to make sure users have access to search API if user had access to CMD_AJAX_SEARCH
 
After the latest update I'm getting an internal error (failed fetching list of updates) when checking System Packages.

Never mind. a "rpm --rebuilddb" fixed it.

There seems to be issues in many(?) places where settings can be changed. For example giving server a new name.

The issue is that when entering again that page where the update was made - DA shows the oudated info!

Now has to do hard page refresh (reload) to see that the settings were actually changed.
 
Found out that DA claims that some Databases have more Users associated to a Database than there actually is specified database users in total...

What is going on here?

Feature Request: Hovering over the Users count number/icon should display all the User names associated to that Database.

Yet another bug:

Sorting in File manager not working correctly.

I use this date format: year-month-day (2025-06-14)

When the Date is cliked it SHOULD toggle between newest and oldest and oldest to newest, but now the result is something else..
 
An patch for this version is released with the following fixes:
  • Fixed Enhanced skin usage bar images.
  • Fixed cPanel to DA import tool error when converting user mailboxes.

We are happy to announce the release of DirectAdmin 1.678.

This release gets a new feature for executing system package updates in DirectAdmin UI. The available system updates will be reported in the same way as CustomBuild updates - the update count bubble in the menu. Second new feature is the addition of buypass.com as a new ACME provider.

A full release change log is here:

DirectAdmin 1.678​

The update should be automatically available for all installations subscribed to the current release channel.

We appreciate all the feedback on forums and issues reported in the ticketing system.

Thanks!

Dear Sir,

Thank you for this latest release. However, I have the following errors when DA is installed on Rocky 9:

error runtime selinux disabling error=exit status 1
creating base main directory layout: creating diradmin system user: exit status 1:
useradd: existing lock file /etc/shadow.lock without a PID
useradd: cannot lock /etc/shadow; try again later.

No password is given.

What could be an issue?

Very appreciate your help.

You should disable selinux.

We understand this is not great from the legacy license owner's perspective. The general policy is that we make new features for modern licences only. I would like to clarify that DirectAdmin did not have a system packages management feature before.

Shouldn't this be documented somewhere just like you documented Pro Pack features in the past? Another new feature from the previous version, Buypass support, is available for legacy licenses so it seems a bit random now if you don't document which new features won't be included in the legacy licenses.
 
All new features should be expected to be available only for the modern DirectAdmin. If it happens to work with legacy licenses, then it is a pleasant surprise for the legacy license holders :). New features sometimes leak into the legacy DA for maintaining the compatibility between the two code bases.
