need to delete broken zone file

[51b0rg]

I have ISPConfig 3 running on Ubuntu 11.10.

I created a Zone for one of my sites.

the zone is wrong and kills all site connections.

how do i find and delete it?

[till]

Login to ispconfig,go to the dns managerand click on the delete icon of the zone. If the doamin of the server is affected, then use the IP of the server instead.

sorry but like i said, it fucks all site connection up. I should elaborate, all connections non-SSH wont connect. so i have to do it remotely.

[till]

Connections made by ip address to the ispconfig controlpanel are not affected by dns settings. If you cant connect to port 8080 when using the ip address, then you might have blocked it with the firewall or apache is not started.

You can check that with the iptables and netstat ommands.

If you want to edit dns records manually, take a look into the bind configuration file directory, there you will find the named.conf.local file.

i checked my apache error log and this is what i found at the end

Can you connect to ISPConfig by using the IP address?

What are the outputs of

netstat -tapn

and

iptables -L

?
