Named not restarting

[fdnven]

Hi,

Name wishes not to restart with this error in log:
Starting named:
Error in named configuration:
/etc/init.d/named: line 175: /usr/sbin/named-checkconf: No such file or directory
[FAILED]


And indeed the file named-checkconf does not exist in /usr/sbin/.

Thanks
Frank

Hello

You may need to reinstall the Bind RPMs. However, first, please try rebuilding your /etc/named.conf file via:

mv /etc/named.conf /etc/named.conf.backup1
/scripts/rebuilddnsconfig

Let us know if the issue persists.

Thank you.

After issuing the commands:

'Named could not be restarted, any obvious config errors should show up below this line.
No critical problems found, will attempt to regenerate keys regardless.
Creating rndc.conf
rndc-confgen not located on system, please check the Bind installation at /usr/local/cpanel/scripts/fixrndc line 337."

Thanks

Did you take any actions before this issue started? Try reinstalling Bind by first checking to see which Bind RPMs are installed. EX:

rpm -qa|grep bind

Use the "rpm -e --nodeps package-name" command to remove the Bind RPMs and then reinstall them through YUM.

Thank you.

Hi,

The only issue server had crashed (due to high load) and a FSCK was performed.

As your commands:
[email protected] [~]# rpm -qa|grep bind
bind-devel-9.8.2-0.17.rc1.el6_4.6.x86_64
bind-utils-9.8.2-0.17.rc1.el6_4.6.x86_64
bind-9.8.2-0.17.rc1.el6_4.6.x86_64
rpcbind-0.2.0-11.el6.x86_64
bind-libs-9.8.2-0.17.rc1.el6_4.6.x86_64

So I need to remove and reinstall all the above?

Thanks
Frank

You could remove/reinstall just the bind-9.8.2-0.17.rc1.el6_4.6.x86_64 RPM.

Thank you.

Remove/reinstall fixed the issue.

Thank you very much
