Anyone seen this before? The last cPanel release version update reset our named.conf file - and took down the ability to resolve about 50 domains hosted on the box. Luckily it was backed up and was easy to fix, although it took awhile to figure out why DNS wasn't working (its been several years since I've worked with named). This is why I only do manual updates to cPanel.

Cpanel support suggested that if it was backed up to named.conf.rpmsave, then "a named rpm update would likely be the cause" - huh?

When we were using Release, it caused Exim to stop working every 5 days for some reason, and we couldn't find anything in the logs. Went to the Stable version since, and everything is working like a charm.

Strange.

Hello,

In SSH try the next:


/scripts/rebuildnamedconf
/scripts/fixnamed
/scripts/fixrndc

service named restart

Let me know if fixed your problem.


Thanks,

Antonio

That happened to us once before, luckily we noticed immediately after the update and had a backup of it. That was one potential disaster that always makes us wary of performing any cPanel update.

IH-Antonio,

I knew there was a script for this somewhere - couldn't find it though. Thanks!
