  • 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.

DNS Problem

bokken

Basic Pleskian
My server ran out of space by partitioning a disk problem, since then the DNS began to fail.

When I start the DNS service, I get an error about not finding the files of the DNS zones.

---

[root@server]# /etc/init.d/named start
Starting named:
Error in named configuration:
zone xxxxxxxx.com/IN: loading master file xxxxxxxx.com: file not found
_default/xxxxxxxx.com/IN: file not found
zone xxxxxxxx.net/IN: loading master file xxxxxxxx.net: file not found
_default/xxxxxxxx.net/IN: file not found
zone xxxxxxxx.org/IN: loading master file xxxxxxxx.org: file not found
_default/xxxxxxxx.org/IN: file not found
[FAILED]


---

As I can restore these files again?

Thanks!

Raul Lozano.
 
Try to update DNS records for these domains via Plesk interface.
 
In Control Panel - Websites & Domains - DNS Settings.
 
Hi!

Not works.

I turned on and off the dns for all domains, I got a new dns record, and I've changed between master and slave.

None of these options causes DNS to regenerate the file.


The DNS appear correctly on the panel, but the file is not generated and the service will not start.


[root@server ~]# /etc/init.d/named start
Starting named:
Error in named configuration:
zone xxx.es/IN: loading master file xxx.es: file not found
_default/xxx.es/IN: file not found
zone xxx.es/IN: loading master file xxx.es: file not found
_default/xxx.es/IN: file not found
zone xx.xxx.xxx.in-addr.arpa/IN: loading master file xx.xxx.xxx.in-addr.arpa: file not found
_default/xx.xxx.xxx.in-addr.arpa/IN: file not found
[FAILED]

The zone in-addr.arpa have the same error.

:(
 
The repair command can restore the DNS without any loss data?


/usr/local/psa/bin/repair --help

Usage: repair command

Available commands:
--run or -r Restores configuration files of web,
mail and DNS servers.
--help or -h Displays this help page.

Version: 10.1.1_build1010110120.18 os_CentOS 5
 
Yes, I have checked it. I have removed one zone file:

# rm -f /var/named/run-root/var/newplesk10.com

And then repaired it with

# /usr/local/psa/bin/repair -r
-- Restoring DNS server configuration started.
newplesk10.com: Ok

# ll /var/named/run-root/var/newplesk10.com
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 980 Jul 21 17:52 /var/named/run-root/var/newplesk10.com
 
Hi IgorG!

I just run the command and tells me to restore everything, in fact the areas are well on your directory, but the service still does not start.

[root@server var]# /usr/local/psa/bin/repair -r
-- Restoring DNS server configuration started.
domain.es: Ok
restart service:dnsmng: Service /etc/init.d/named failed to restart

The permisions its correct?:

[root@server var]# pwd

[root@server var]# ls -lah

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 711 Jul 21 13:41 domain.es


The service not start, the same error:

[root@server var]# /etc/init.d/named start
Starting named:
Error in named configuration:
zone domain.es/IN: loading master file domain.es: file not found
_default/domain.es/IN: file not found

Where are the master file?¿


Thanks!

I think that you should check content of named.conf
 
Hi IgorG!

My permisions:

[root@server]# stat /var/named/run-root/var
File: `/var/named/run-root/var'
Size: 4096 Blocks: 8 IO Block: 4096 directory
Device: fd01h/64769d Inode: 4199204 Links: 3
Access: (0755/drwxr-xr-x) Uid: ( 25/ named) Gid: ( 25/ named)

[root@server]# ls -lah /etc/named.conf
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 34 Jan 8 2007 /etc/named.conf -> /var/named/run-root/etc/named.conf


Just compare the named.conf file to another server, and the beginning of the file is different, actually begins in the area as if he were around the beginning of the file.

Just a fresh start file with data from the other server gives me error:

[root@server]# /etc/init.d/named start
Starting named:
Error in named configuration:
/etc/named.conf:333: unexpected end of input
[FAILED]


But just to review the file and exit successfully, exactly like the other server with plesk.

Is there any way to self-regenerate this file? Or pass me a blank template where are all the necessary data?

Thanks!
 
In attach named.conf from my test Plesk 10 environment.

DNS Server (BIND) not starting

I have a DNS problem also.

In "Server Tools", it says that the DNS Server (BIND) is not running. When I click on the Green Play button, it does not start the DNS Server (BIND).

What could be the problem?

I am current running BIND 9.7.0-P2 on CentOS-6 64-bit.

In SSH, when I type in the command "service named start" it says that it is "already running [OK]".

Since I can access and view my website, I am assuming that BIND is working properly.

Please advise.
