addon domain problem

[Trice]

When trying to add on a domain i get a problem, it doesn't add the domain name to the cpanel for me :S

The error i get is:

Domain already exists, it was not added. The domain you have specified does not conform to domain name rules. Removed Entry from httpd.conf The subdomain, ts.securityfreaks.net has been removed. http://www.toxiksoul.com could not be setup. The subdomain ts.securityfreaks.net was not setup either.

Any ideas?

[.:RAIS:.]

Domain already exists, it was not added.

The domain name already exisits on the current server.

Yes you need to remove the domain from the server first before re-creating it again as an add-on domain

how would we go about removing the domain from the server?

Unless you have WHM access and are the owner or root then you will need your host to do that for you.

how i resolved this...

i looked in as many places as i could think of (/etc/named.conf, /var/named/, /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf, locate sch*, find sch*, /etc/vdomainaliases/, /var/cpanel/bandwidth/), with no results...

what i finally did was to add an account with that same domain name, and then terminate it... seems to have cleared whatever the holdup was (maybe someting in mysql?). i did get an error about not being able to park common domains, but everything worked in the end
