I have purchased DirectAdmin last month, and I'm using it for the first time. I've been using cPanel and shared hosting services since 2015, and now I'm leveraging my skills to the next level. I tried installing node to upload my REACT JS website and deploy it, but I couldn't find the options associated with it.

I searched for the following options, but couldn't find it. NGINX isn't showing in my Menu, and "Nginx Unit" is not showing.
  • Setup Node.js App
  • Setup Python App
  • Setup Laravel App
I tried installing using the following commands but couldn't find node:

cd /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild
./build update
./build set unit yes
./build unit

I tried resetting the DirectAdmin but couldn't see it. I tried updating but even though; I still can't see them.

I Asked ChatGBT and it showed that DirectAdmin already offer the PRO Version of Node, so why can't I find it, and the other options as well?

I searched for ways to Enable Nginx Unit in Package and Assign Package to User, then restart; but nothing happened!

Please share your insights so that I could deploy my apps smoothly.

Thank you in advance for your help!

If the article provided by @zEitEr does not help you, please open support ticket and we will try to check it closer for you, because if you use any of DA License from this page:

https://directadmin.com/pricing.php

then it should be available and working after the installation.

Also please note that "Nginx Unit" is just the name of feature and it does not have the related to WEB Nginx itself. So, it can be running on DA server where Apache, LiteSpeed or OLS is used as WEB service.
