DNS / Re: BIND wont start

« on: January 17, 2014, 08:41:58 PM »

got it working by adding ns1 IN A 107.158.xxx.xxx and ns2. IN A 107.158.xxx.xxx

Figured it was worth leaving the post up in case anyone else had this issue and for the developers to have a look at

DNS / BIND wont start

« on: January 17, 2014, 08:13:33 PM »

I set the nameserver IPs etcas per instructions but BIND wont start get the following:-

Starting named:
Error in named configuration:
zone localhost.localdomain/IN: loaded serial 0
zone localhost/IN: loaded serial 0
zone 1.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.ip6.arpa/IN: loaded serial 0
zone 1.0.0.127.in-addr.arpa/IN: loaded serial 0
zone 0.in-addr.arpa/IN: loaded serial 0
zone xxx.co.uk/IN: NS 'ns1.xxx.co.uk' has no address records (A or AAAA)
zone xxx.co.uk/IN: NS 'ns2.xxx.co.uk' has no address records (A or AAAA)
zone xxx.co.uk.uk/IN: not loaded due to errors.
_default/xxx.co.uk/IN: bad zone
[FAILED]

Zone file is this

; Panel %version%
; Zone file for xxx.co.uk
$TTL 14400
xxx.co.uk.      86400   IN      SOA     ns1.xxx.co.uk. email@email.co.uk. (
      2013071600   ; serial, todays date+todays
      86400      ; refresh, seconds
      7200      ; retry, seconds
      3600000      ; expire, seconds
      86400 )      ; minimum, seconds

xxx.co.uk. 86400 IN NS ns1.xxx.co.uk.
xxx.co.uk. 86400 IN NS ns2.xxx.co.uk.

xxx.co.uk. IN A 107.161.xxx.xxx

localhost.xxx.co.uk. IN A 127.0.0.1

xxx.co.uk. IN MX 0 xxx.co.uk.

mail IN CNAME xxx.co.uk.
www IN CNAME xxx.co.uk.
ftp IN CNAME xxx.co.uk.
; Add additional settings below this line

i figured adding the ip and nameserver via the panel would populate the ns1.xxx.co.uk IN A 107.161.xxx.xxx bit but hasnt in this instance it didnt like being manually added, any ideas?
