Directadmin :2222 not responding

[peach]

Hi guys.

While I was changing virtual host templates, the control panel suddenly stopped responding. I believe it happened after I saved a virtual host template with just # in it for testing.

After that, I couldn't login to my control panel anymore, but I could still interact with phpmyadmin before I close it's window.
Now nothing is responding anymore on :2222, also when I use a proxy. I just get a blank screen and it doesn't connect.

I've read this thread here and I tried the following:

links doesn't work on my install. Humm.... oh well.

"netstat -an" does

[root@server ~]# netstat -an | grep 2222
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:2222 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN
tcp 358 0 85.17.207.172:2222 67.159.44.37:49673 CLOSE_WAIT
[root@server ~]

Soooo :2222 is the only listed port on my server that is on CLOSE_WAIT?
I bet that has something to do with my problem Does anyone know what to do here?

Thx in advance

by the way the number before CLOSE_WAIT (67.1...) is in the column Foreign Address, but it's not my own ip number. Does that indicate someone with that ip tried to hack and therefore the server shut it down?

netstat -nap | grep :2222
this will output also process id so you can kill it and start DA successfully

I called my mate who's my server guy and he told me to type service directadmin restart in SSH, and now the panel is working again.
Unfortunately, when I try to go back to edit the virtual host template of my domain name, it crashes again.
Does anyone know where directadmin stores the data you type in the "Httpd.conf Customization for example.com" textbox? Im hoping the problem will go away if I reset/delete that data.

you mean to virtualhost?

/usr/local/directadmin/data/users/*/httpd.conf
