What error do you see.
Check your directadmin logfiles if you see any error there.
Is the directadmin service even running?
Which distro and version are you using?
centos 7

You said you changed your password. I think that for everyone who wants to help you it will be useful if you indicate in detail what exactly, where and how you changed.
If the old password is still working because the change did not succeeded, then normally you can find it here in this file: /usr/local/directadmin/scripts/setup.txt
Via SSH you can change the admin password, but you do have to be logged in as root and have full root rights, then you can do either: passwd admin
or sudo passwd admin
If password can not be read, check these, should be correct already, but safer to check:
