I just installed a fresh server last wednesday, and DA did not change my hostname.
I did have the correct hostname I wanted in the /etc/hosts file and in the /etc/hostname file (in full not only server but server.domain.com) and DA did not change anything.

Just did one this morning. Completely removed my original hostname.
[root@server-38-45-64-108 ~]# cat /etc/hosts

And hostname and hosts were correct before? Very strange.
Als rebooted after setting hostname and before using the install command?
I used this command but that should make no difference.
I use the interactive since I want the choices.
Wednesday this did not work but that was my own fault because I put an options.conf file in the custombuild directory so DA would install everything I required automatically.
Last time and next time I won't use the interactive part anymore, just the options.conf file.

I am really looking for an answer from DirectAdmin.
I found I have to use
But I had to google it to find it. None of the options are found in the client area instructions.
It is baffling that the setup script would not detect what the already set hostname is and instead change it to something we cannot really use.

Yes but that is to force it. Normally if the hostname is setup correctly, you don't have to use that command.
I specifically asked that in the thread and fln answered me this.
Found the related answer:
But some (like the hostname) are present in the docs.
However it's odd that it's happening to you and not to me 2 days earlier. You're also on Alma 9?

I just did a fresh OS reinstall. Here are the exact commands. You can see the host name I set up is server1.littlecreekhosting.com and it does resolve. Yet the DA install changed it. I know I can set DA_HOSTNAME="server1.littlecreekhosting.com" but according to @fln I shouldn't have to.

quotaon: Your kernel probably supports ext4 quota feature but you are using external quota files. Please switch your filesystem to use ext4 quota feature as external quota files on ext4 are deprecated. You can enable the feature by unmounting the file system and running 'tune2fs -O quota <device>'.

That is might be the mistake, most likely causing the issue. Unless you masked this. But if this is real, then it's wrong.
Never ever set your hostname as localhost.
I don't know if
hostname -f would also give the correct output.Anyway this should be in /etc/hosts file:
Code:
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
xx.xx.xx.xx server1.littlecreekhosting.comfloyd

Richard thanks for your help. It was @fln who said what was used was "uname -n" and that does give the correct output.
However fixing the hostname seems to have resolved the issue. The question is why did it matter since DA supposedly doesn't check this. At least @fln didn't say it did.
This is a VPS created by Virtualizor and it put the hostname in there set as localhost. I will report it to them.

Yes. Somewhere (I thouht in the docs or an earlier post) it was sayd uname -a and hostname -f should be used to test.
It might be that it is checked nowadays as DA is trying to make everything more according to how it's officially should be done. Which would then also mean the localhost should not point to the FQDN hostname.
But good thing you posted all output so we could find the real cause of the issue. Hopefully Virtualizor will fix things so they will create it in a normal way too.
