In some cases you may encounter an issue in your DirectAdmin control panel with error message "License has expired". To solve this issue you need to apply three simple commands in your server while logged in via SSH as "root" user.
1. Add new task for license confirmation
Adds a license update request to the DirectAdmin task queue by running this command:
echo 'action=update&value=license' >> /usr/local/directadmin/data/task.queue
2. Initiate the queued task
Process the queued tasks so the license update runs immediately:
/usr/local/directadmin/dataskq
3. Restart DirectAdmin
Restarts the DirectAdmin service to load the refreshed license.
systemctl restart directadmin
Login into your DirectAdmin and the error message should not be seen anymore.
