Cannot find /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date... up2date may break things.
*** Cannot find the /usr/sbin/crond binary.  Please install crond (yum install vixie-cron) ***
Installation didn't pass, halting install.

Any ideas on what is going on?
 
That means you definitely do not have crond installed. Please install it and try again to install DA.
 
There's a file there called cron but not one called crond... Should I just rename it to crond?
 
Code: 
whereis cron

Maybe Ubuntu uses a binary called cron instead.

I think there is a good chance that the DA license you are using does not match the operating system you are using.
 
You haven't said if whereis cron returned anything?

Where did you find the file named cron? If it /var/log/cron, then does it have any contents?

It's possible that Debian and Ubuntu aren't the same internally.

You should probably check on an ubuntu forum for information on the cron daemon but then I'd expect other reports of problems.

it puts it at /usr/sbin/cron when directadmin is looking for it at /usr/sbin/crond

edit: no, its not empty
 
I really think you need to check your license OS version. DirectAdmin probably will find /usr/sbin/cron if you are installing using the correct license.
 
Is there a specific version I should have? I have a Debian 4.0 license, shouldn't it work? It says which license you have before you begin installing...
 
You can always try creating a symlink from /usr/sbin/crond to /usr/sbin/cron and try the install again and see if it keeps on going. That would have been the first thing I did if I was sure of the license version.
 
Are you sure you have debian license?

Why would it be quoting:

Cannot find /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date... up2date may break things.
*** Cannot find the /usr/sbin/crond binary. Please install crond (yum install vixie-cron) ***


It should not be telling you to use yum if you have a debian license.
 
Got a lot father...

Code: 
./directadmin: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
./directadmin: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
 
I have a Debian 4.0 license
Click to expand...

So you are saying that after we asked you about the license version you logged into your account at directadmin.com and checked the OS for your license there? You are not just telling us what you think the license is? You are not going on what the setup script said? You actually saw the license OS on the clients section of directadmin.com?

If you did indeed see the correct license OS in your account on directadmin.com then you need to consult with them directly.
