Comments on Installing PowerDNS With MySQL On CentOS

Hello

Are you also able to create a howto on setting up a secondary name server, no one seems to be doing those.

A secondary slave name server that gets its records from the primary powerdns name server

I have create tutorial for dns slave, check this link

https://www.howtoforge.com/installation-of-bind-as-a-secondary-slave-dns-server-on-centos

 let me know if you have problem again, thank you.

 Rhesa.

as I read the documentation of PowerDNS, PowerDNS using mysql replication for master/slave configuration. CMIIW 

Wouldn't you just setup MySQL to replicate the DB and/or point the new PowerDNS to the same MySQL server.

I would probably setup 2 MySQL servers which replicate the DB, either as A/S or A/A and then point the PowerDNS servers accordingly.

Hi,

first of al a big thank you for offering this description.

I think I found two mistakes:

1) The third action in paragraph 6 is:

mysql> user powerdns;

This results in a sql-error - I think the line should be:
mysql> use powerdns;

2) In paragraph 11 the forth action is:

[root@server ~]# mv /var/www/html/poweradmin/inc/config.inc.php

This makes no sense and ends into an os-error - is there probably missing a dot?

Finally I do habe problems with paragraph 10. I get the following error messages:

Running Transaction

/tmp/glibctestsbd3OB:1:22: Fehler: features.h: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden

What do I need to do to avoid them?

And a last question - I should see apache at the servers ip, right? In fact I don't ...

Best regards,
Frank

In paragraph 6. There's edited pdns.conf with mysql connection settings, but there's not told what user to use. Power_admin user is not created, should we use root? Also host is something from your own config. I know what to use and do, but someone else could be lost.

There's also other error in paragraph 11. It says "mv poweradmin-2.1.2 poweradmin", but poweradmin is unpacked under /var/www/html so you're in wrong directory. Needed to be "mv /var/www/html/poweradmin-2.1.2 /var/www/html/poweradmin"

Poweradmin also needed to be installed through browser. So at the end, go to http://your-ip-address/poweradmin/install and follow the instructions

Hello,

On my server, I am facing an issue with a CPU load of 92% and my traffic has increased to 7Mbits/s due to which there is no response from PowerDNS.

Need urgent help.
