License expired,

[Aar]

Hello,

When i log in to my DirectAdmin, i see: "License has expire
I've take a look into the journal, but i don';t see any notices about the license.

I've taken a look into /usr/local/directadmin/conf/license.key, and i see a long code (licence key?) but in the file below i see a lot of rubbish in characters. Is this normal?
What should i do now?

My VPS server has been delivered by my hosting, and i don't know if i have an account into the Client Account Area.

The check on https://license.directadmin.com/ gives me no errors.
I think this problem is a thingy about the new license system?

Important: Upgrade your DirectAdmin to ensure compatibility with our new licensing system

We'd like to announce that we're shutting down our old licensing infrastructure. Our more advanced key-based system has been operating for months already, and we are now ready to formalize this system as the future of DirectAdmin licensing. If you are running any of our last three releases...

Hmm, the version was 1.63.4.
Then the license should have worked according to that topic.

I updated DA via the CLI and now it works.

I too had an license expired issue on 2 servers running directadmin 1.63.6 on Rocky 8 both on 21/03/2022 (2 days ago).
I had to update directadmin to 1.63.8 via cli to fix the issue.

Not really worrying, I have taken this opportunity to update all services on all servers immediately as well.
