• The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Bind won't start: "zone 'domain.com': already exists previous definition"

Hello,

after updating to V 9.0 Bind won't start no matter if trying in Plesk or in command line. Following the sample error message, which occurs for every single domain:
/etc/named.conf.include.plesk-zones:117: zone 'domain.com': already exists previous definition: /etc/named.conf.include.plesk-zones:117

And at the end:
/etc/named.conf.include.plesk-zones:1733: attempt to redefine acl 'common-allow-transfer' previous definition: /etc/named.conf.include.plesk-zones :1733

Could someone please help?
 
Hi,

Make sure you do not have manually added configurations/zone files
Also try running the following command to rebuild DNS zone for a domain:
/usr/local/psa/bin/dnsmng update domain.com
or
/usr/local/psa/admin/bin/dnsmng update domain.com

and next try to start bind and check if error will still show for domain.com or no. If no then run this query for every domain.
