hi,

I got this error in my installation:

## REPORT_START
Welcome to DirectAdmin verion 1.30.1!
You are now about to run the install program. If DirectAdmin is already
installed, it may destroy previous data.

Cannot find ip in the ./scripts/setup.txt file
## INSTALL_FAILED
## REPORT_END
Permissions set

I've add the IP at setup.txt file, how can I run from here?

thanks.
 
I think you can make the change in the setup file to point to eth1. What you cannot do is change the IP#; you must install DirectAdmin at the IP# in your license. When you run:
Code: 
# ifconfig
do you see the IP# in the license assigned to, and running on, eth1? If not you'll have to figure out why. If so and you're still having problems after changing the DirectAdmin setup file, you may have to contact DirectAdmin (look here.

Hi Jeff,

Yes, the licenced IP was set in eth1, I've just set the installer to use eth1 and it works.

thanks,
Ricardo.

As part of it's license system, DirectAdmin requires that the server runs on an external networkable IP#.

Jeff
 
what u mean by an external networkable IP ??

you mean i need to set up my license ip at eth0 and my lan ip on eth0:0 ??
 
You need to use an IP# provided by your connection provider (your ISP). It must not be a private (nonroutable IP#), and it must not be NATted from a different IP#. What you call a lan ip is probably not going to work.

Jeff
 
you mean i need to have direct connection ??
but my provider said that i need to use their router to have a connection.
 
In general you should have a direct connection with a public IP# if you're going to serve content. There are work arounds, but they don't work with DirectAdmin (or many other control panels) because they're not compatible with the licensing used.

And there's no reason why your provider can't give you a public Internet-routable IP# through their router. Our router at our datacenter provides us with several routable networks.

If your provider can't give you a public Internet-routable IP#, then you won't be able to use DirectAdmin with that provider. Options are to change providers, colocate your server with a colocation center that can provide you with a public Internet-routable IP#, or find a control panel that will work with a NATted private IP#.
