I am trying to install DA on Alma 8, which I did several times in the past without issues. Now, on fresh install, I get this message when Clicking "MySQL Management" as user:
Error connecting to MySQL:
Access denied for user 'da_admin'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
Repair guide: http://help.directadmin.com/item.php?id=45
Repair guide is not of much help, as I do not understand what to do exactly. Anybody please help? I think that should be solved by DA as I tried two times to install on blank SSD with same result. Again, did not have this issue in the past.

If that matters, I changed DA password via SSH using "passwd admin". There may be a new bug, I don't know. Please how can I fix that? Done nothing else but clean fresh install.

Yes fresh install - Alma 8 install, yum update, DA install. Done that dozens of times with no such issue. Same error after rebuild. Any idea? Is it related to DA password change? I think there is a bug now in DA install, tried 3-4 times, same error when clicking on MySQL Management as user.

Try install previous version of DA, I mean try STABLE channel, instead of CURRENT.
I'm just running this for Directadmin custombuild interactive:
--
wget https://download.directadmin.com/setup.sh && chmod +x setup.sh
export DA_CHANNEL=stable && export DA_INTERACTIVE_CUSTOMBUILD=yes
./setup.sh KEY

Thank you, I guess that should work, as few months ago made several installs without this issue. Now I made it work though, by changing DA password from inside DA not using SSH. What is the difference, I don't know but now it works. Thanks again.
