Glad an answer arrived, I have attached some scripts that I used a year or so 
ago, they will need editing. They will make bulk imports a bit easier.

I think Vegadns is running this command when you try to do axfr from 
the gui (line 565 in src/domains.php).


wget -q -O - 
'$vegadns_url/axfr_get.php?domain=$domain&hostname=".$_REQUEST['hostname']."' 



Try running that from the command line (substituting actual values) 
and see if it gives you any more clues as to what could be happening.

Just grasping at straws... is the PHP function 'shell_exec'
disabled on your server?

The next line after the wget is:

$out = shell_exec($command);

Maybe the shell_exec is failing and $out is empty or contains an
error?

Oh, a quick way to test my theory about shell_exec...

Try the DNS Query tool within Vegadns. It uses shell_exec. If that 
works, then shell_exec is not the problem. If that fails, then maybe 
shell_exec is the problem.

That works.  Looks like it is a command line dnsq or dnsqr, right?  I 
never even knew it was there.  I am not sure how the heck I can get this 
domain in my db.  The thing is, I have used this method before with 
domains from the some boxen.  I just do not know what has happened in 
between.  I have replaced all the vegadns scripts and reconfigured it 
and it still does the same thing.  Can you tell by the Code, what the 
error means, or is it just a generic error message?
