i'm wait to help (if mark see this msg please ans' me)
 
Did you check to make sure that the file exists and has the correct permissions set? Basically just as the error message suggests.

Have you tried chmod 777 ?
 
Hello,

I also get the following message:

## REPORT_START

When I change the Permission to 777 they ./directadmin i canges it back and can't use it.

Please help;)

Hello,

There are only 2 conditions that mentioned error can occur:

1) There is no diradmin user/group.
2) The /usr/local/directadmin/conf/directadmin.conf cannot be read by the diradmin user (lockfile creation also required).

Paste for us, the output of:
Code: 
ls -la /usr/local/directadmin
ls -la /usr/local/directadmin/conf
Also, let us know which OS this is installed on.

Solved. Was an a different OS selected in the license, thus downloading the wrong binaries, hence the strange results.

Hello,

Thank you for the solution. I was installing on behalf of a client of mine and did not know wassup :)

Next time I will have to verify that the licenses are correct.

Best regards.
