ISPConfig Bind offline
 

Built an Ubuntu 8.04LTS ISPConfig server per Falko's instructions and two weeks ago, all was working fine. Lately, I have been working my way through getting my server recognized by my ISP nameservers.

Because I need to run one nameserver, I followed "How To Run Your Own Name Server With ISPConfig and providerdomain.de" how to. Struggled with the German graphics (on page 2), but I think I got through it with the help of "How To Run Your Own Servers With ISPConfig And GoDaddy" how to.

And now I have discovered that my bind9 is not running. "Services" shows it is "offline" as does natstat -tap shows not listening to ports 53 or 953.

The syslogd captures the following:

Oct 7 10:11:32 web02 named[22030]: starting BIND 9.4.2-P1 -u bind -t /var/lib/named
Oct 7 10:11:32 web02 named[22030]: found 1 CPU, using 1 worker thread

Oct 7 10:11:32 web02 kernel: [950173.520670] audit(1223392292.562:23): type=1503 operation="inode_permission" requested_mask="r::" denied_mask="r::" name="/var/lib/named/etc/bind/named.conf" pid=22031 profile="/usr/sbin/named" namespace="default"

I checked the permissions of /var/lib/named/etc/bind/named.conf and it is bind:bind.

Did something update bind recently that I overlooked when upgrading?

I need help. Please. :confused:

I have the same probleme
 

i have the same probleme as you just for me the server is installed on centos5.2.

What's the output of ?

ls -la output
 

ls -la /etc/bind gives the following output.

nrobert@web02:~$ ls -la /etc/bind
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 2008-09-24 09:11 /etc/bind -> /var/lib/named/etc/bind

move?
 

Not getting any action here. Bind was working and then stopped. Should this be moved to some Bind forum?

Anybody?

I need the output of

Oops sorry

Can you try this: and restart BIND?
