Addon Domain Woes

Hello,

Check the following files and delete the addon domain entry
/etc/localdomains
/etc/userdomains
/etc/named.conf
/var/named/domain.db
httpd.conf
/var/cpanel/users/<username> --------------[ if there is a entry related with add on domain please delete the line from this file]

May be it will help you to solve this issue.

Let me know the status.

 

I'm still getting the already configured error still after running the below:

Remove:

/etc/localdomains
/etc/userdomains
/etc/named.conf
/var/named/domain.db
httpd.conf
/var/cpanel/users/<username>

and removed all results from that appeared on "locate domain.com"

Ran:
updatedb
/scripts/rebuildnamedconf
/scripts/updateuserdomains
/scripts/fixvaliases
/scripts/fixndc
/scripts/fixbuggynamed

service named restart
service httpd restart
updatedb

locate domain.com (no instances)

Domain with registrar is using proper nameservers, no parked / forwarders setup either.

What could give now?


I want to use domain forwarder option only in whm but it tells me forwarders is setup on xxx.242.342.422 IP and all domains forwarded must point to that IP. What is that about?

yeah I've got the same problem. I don't need this - I'm having a bad afternoon. Can some genius out there PLEASE give us the answer.

thanks,
Lloyd

 

maybe it just takes time

Despite the strange and negative messages which I got upon creation of the addon domain having left things set-up overnight DNS seems to have sorted itself and the addon domain I set up is now working! hurray!

..when you've got patience.

 

NICE FIX! :D

 

That didn't fix it for me. The error still exists.

Remove:

/etc/localdomains
/etc/userdomains
/etc/named.conf
/var/named/domain.db
httpd.conf
/var/cpanel/users/<username>

and removed all results from that appeared on "locate domain.com"

Ran:
updatedb
/scripts/rebuildnamedconf
/scripts/updateuserdomains
/scripts/fixvaliases
/scripts/fixndc
/scripts/fixbuggynamed

service named restart
service httpd restart
updatedb

The error still resides.

Using:
WHM 10.6.0 cPanel 10.6.0-C54

Any suggestions?

 

unfortunately this did not fix my problem either but if you try this and it doesnt work try this i know alot of you probably wont have the whm/web host manager but if you do then go to your delete dns zone and delete that domain why i had that already in my dns i dont know but after you delete that domain you will beable to add the subdomain and then add it to the addon domains if you donot have the whm please contact your hosting support and have them delete the name your having trouble binding in there whm

 

Hello,


I too had the same isue today... Cpanel seems to be a little Buggy!!! I removed all entries all httpd, named, and all entries in all fiels that could cause the issue. Restarted httpd, named etc..Still the same error. Then I took the main WHM and looked at Edit a DNS Zone. There the domain is listed!!!

So check in WHM edit zone to see whether an entry corresponding to the addon domain name is showing there. If yes, DELETE that and this will work fine...

 

Hello,

I made a further check and found that it was due to the chrooting done....
