When I install DA on my Debian system, once it gets to the final step (/usr/local/directadmin/directadmin i), I get the following:

Code:
## REPORT_START
Welcome to DirectAdmin verion 1.29.6!
You are now about to run the install program. If DirectAdmin is already
installed, it may destroy previous data.


Here is the information given:

options.conf exists, not installing the httpd.conf. Relying on customapache.

*** Unable to read directadmin.conf.  Check permissions and make sure that it exists.  Cannot find the diradmin user.  Make sure the diradmin user exists in your system.<br>

## INSTALL_FAILED
## REPORT_END
Permissions set
However, diradmin DOES exist, both in /etc/shadow and /etc/passwd, so what gives?
