Problem with BIND and ISPConfigs's DNS Manager

[Nejko]

Hello,

i solved all my problems except this one. I have problem with bind and ispconfig. When i create a domain (either master or slave), BIND goes down, and give an error like:

Failed to start BIND : Starting named: Error in named configuration: zone 0.0.127.in-addr.arpa/IN: loaded serial 1997022700 zone aljaz.nero-server.com/IN: loading master file pri.aljaz.nero-server.com: file not found _default/aljaz.nero-server.com/IN: file not found zone nero-server.com/IN: loaded serial 1142422867 zone dnt-celje.com/IN: loaded serial 1142681570 [SPODLETELO]

and as soon as i delete domain from ispconfig, iw works normally again. If i create domain in Webmin, it works perfectly... I realy have to fix that, becouse i don't want to create all domains for my resellers and costumers manualy. Any suggestions?

Have A Nice Day, Nejko

It's not an ISPConfig problem, the problem is that Webmin and ISPConfig are interfering because both try to configure the same service. Either use ISPConfig or Webmin for configuring BIND, but not both.

Ok, i stopped Webmin, but it's same problem..... It just won't work. Is it possible, that i give u acess and u take closer look? It would be easier i guess...

?

If you need this kind of support, have a look here: http://www.ispconfig.org/support.htm

But the problem should be easy to solve: have a look at named.conf, then have a look at the error message, and also have a look at your zone files. Normally you should see then where the problem is.

Look, i created 123.nero-server.com and i get:

Failed to start BIND : Starting named: Error in named configuration: zone 0.0.127.in-addr.arpa/IN: loaded serial 1997022700 zone 2.168.192.in-addr.arpa/IN: loading master file pri.2.168.192.in-addr.arpa: file not found _default/2.168.192.in-addr.arpa/IN: file not found zone 123.nero-server.com/IN: loading master file pri.123.nero-server.com: file not found _default/123.nero-server.com/IN: file not found zone nero-server.com/IN: loaded serial 1142867358 [SPODLETELO]

And If i look in it's zone file, there's notjing in it, but in named.conf is:

zone "123.nero-server.com" {
type master;
file "pri.123.nero-server.com";
};

and the working domain created in webmin(nero-server.com) is:

zone "nero-server.com" {
type master;
file "/var/named/nero-server.com.hosts";
};

Why is the file url diffarent?

You shouldn't use subdomains in zones. Use

zone "nero-server.com" {
  type master;
  file "pri.nero-server.com";
};

instead.
What's in your named.conf?

[Nejko]

options {
pid-file "/var/named/chroot/var/run/named/named.pid";
directory "/var/named";
auth-nxdomain no;
/*

*/
// query-source address * port 53;
};

zone "." {
type hint;
file "named.ca";
};

zone "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa" {
type master;
file "named.local";
};

zone "123.nero-server.com" {
type master;
file "pri.123.nero-server.com";
};

zone "nero-server.com" {
type master;
file "/var/named/nero-server.com.hosts";
};

Does /var/named/pri.123.nero-server.com exist? What's in it?

[Nejko]

[root@localhost ~]# cd /var/named/pri.123.nero-server.com
-bash: cd: /var/named/pri.123.nero-server.com: No such file or directory
[root@localhost ~]# cd /var/named/
[root@localhost named]# dir
chroot localdomain.zone named.broadcast named.ip6.local named.zero
data localhost.zone named.ca named.local slaves
[root@localhost named]#

[falko]

You must create the zone file /var/named/pri.123.nero-server.com then.
