This means that the name server isn't running for some reason.

Did you really put the parameters at the left margin like that? Maybe it
doesn't matter after a parenthesis, but continuation lines should generally
be indented.
Why didn't you just leave everything else the same and just move the close
parenthesis to before the comment character, like I said in my message?
That's the conventional way that SOA records are written.
