Some more research leads to this PowerDNS bug: http://wiki.powerdns.com/trac/ticket/502
Which is mentioned in the NEWS.Debian.gz file in pdns 3.1 Debian packages, but not in the Ubuntu packages: -------- pdns now ships an empty, but activated bind backend so that the daemon can launch immediately. Since PowerDNS only allows a single launch statement (see http://wiki.powerdns.com/trac/ticket/502), you need to adapt either the new simplebind configuration or your custom configuration. PowerDNS will not flag multiple launch statements as an error, but it will only honor one of them. Be aware of that if your PowerDNS complains about configuration for a not enabled backend. -------- Basically you can only have one "launch=" line anywhere in any of the PowerDNS configuration files, see: http://doc.powerdns.com/pdns-users-faq.html Perhaps this could be added to the documentation in the Ubuntu package? ** Bug watch added: wiki.powerdns.com/trac/ #502 http://wiki.powerdns.com/trac/ticket/502 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1082528 Title: No bind backend compiled in To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pdns/+bug/1082528/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
