hey guys

a rather curious issue that hasn't shown up before, while doing an automated update , i get the usual "your update has completed" message , but when i look the the licensing info again, the version has not updated, and the bugs that the update is meant to fix are still there also. Same thing if i try a manual update. Any known issues regarding this??? , if not i could use the communities help on this.
 
FreeBSD xxxxx.domain.com 8.4-RELEASE-p10 FreeBSD 8.4-RELEASE-p10 #10 r266472M
 

did the first url , no luck there. As i stated in my original post , did the manual update also, with no luck , tried it again , still nothing, system message says it updated, but i'm guessing its a trigger when the script completes.

there was this in the directadmin error log

2014:07:07-07:55:09: Update::getCurrentVersion: Cannot find the end of the headers : gave up after timeout<br>

Have you tried it doing this way?
Code:
cd /usr/local/directadmin
wget --no-check-certificate -O update.tar.gz 'https://www.directadmin.com/cgi-bin/daupdate?redirect=ok&uid=123&lid=1234'
tar xvzf update.tar.gz
./directadmin p
cd scripts
./update.sh
/etc/init.d/directadmin restart

Could it be that it's a FreeBSD 7 license used on your FreeBSD 8.4 machine? Please check and let us know the output of:
Code:
/usr/local/directadmin/directadmin o
 
Compiled on 'FreeBSD 7.1 64-bit'
Compile time: Dec 27 2013 at 12:51:03
Compiled with IPv6

had it running fine for FreeBSD 8.3 , seems to have broken when i went from 8.3 to 8.4

ok , sent Directadmin sales an email regarding the license info change, also rolling a http://help.directadmin.com/item.php?id=26 to see if that'll will update the directadmin compile info and i'll get back to yas with the findings.

ok it does seem it was a licensing issue, once i got the email from sales back, i updated the license and the upgrade went through flawlessly, thank you both zEitEr and smtalk.
