Hello

Are you sure the DNS zone was successfully deleted? Try removing it again via a command such as:

/scripts/killdns $domain.com

Then, check to see if a DNS= entry for this domain name exists in the /var/cpanel/users/$username file of the username it's listed as belonging to.

Thank you.

Thanks for the Reply, But the domain is added in the hosting But there is no zone of the domain in WHM I think I deleted it. Where as in /var/cpanel/users/khalidre it shows as follows:
===================================================================================
[Removed Actual Domains]
===================================================================================
where [Removed Actual Domains] is the domain whos zone I want to create.

With the following code it shows unable to delete zone as it is already removed.
/scripts/killdns $domain.com

I suggest adding the zone back in via:

"WHM Home » DNS Functions » Add a DNS Zone"

Ensure you select the username associated with the account it's added to. Then, instead of manually deleting the zone, delete the domain name as an addon/parked domain name from the account itself through cPanel.

Thank you.
