Named crashing every 20 min

[RingofFire]

Im not sure if its something I did in ISPconfig, but bind is crashing every 20 min.

Heres the log from named.run:

Domains I have running are xenotype.net(which I just purchased), appalhost.info, nameservers are ns1.appalhost.info, ns2.appalhost.info

The test domain I created to check things, its not real.

Ips are 207.210.77.119 and 65.254.53.154. Xenotype is hosted on the 65 address, 207 is for appalhost.info.

I was trying to solve a problem with my registrar and I added a bad CNAME for the xenotype.net domain. I deleted it in the primary zone file in bind chroot, but couldnt figure out how to delete it in ispconfig.

What could be causing the crash? Is it anything to worry about? Is this normal?

I cant see no crashs in your log, only normal shutdowns. Does your named crash when you restart it with the script in /etc/init.d/ ?

Open the domain xenotype.net in ISPConfig and delete the cname record, then wait a minute and empty the recycle bin. Deleteing a cname manually in a zone file will be overridden by ISPConfig.

deleted it manually in phpmyadmin

I have ispconfig set so it notifies me if anything goes down.

Could the bad cname be causing bind to shut down and restart? Because I didnt do anything to cause it to do that.

I also updated bind and a few other things with yum, could that be causing it?

That was a really bad idea, beacuse deleting records manually with phpmyadmin will corrupt your database when you dont delete the corresponding records in dns_nodes and dns_dep. Thtats why I told you to delete it in the interface and not in phpmyadmin.

I deleted the domain and its records and created it again with backed up data.

It appears to be 100% fixed.
