How to Delete All admin Tickets (Messages) from Directadmin

To delete all the admin messages (tickets) from direct admin control panel:

  1. Goto this folder /usr/local/directadmin/data/tickets
    # cd /usr/local/directadmin/data/tickets
  2. Delete all the folder content, which is the messages
    # rm -Rf *
  3. Clear up the messages database file
    # echo "" > /usr/local/directadmin/data/admin/tickets.list

All messages should be cleared now, mostly those messages are from the brute-force attack logs, if you don’t mind about such messages you can disabled this feature in DirectAdmin control panel.

To achieve that, from the DirectAdmin Panel -> Extra Features, click on Administrator Settings and choose No for the Security Option Parse service logs for brute force attacks
