Somehow my DNS is not starting up

[Alberto Colosi]

Hi is a common problem! when you start as user or root

service take shell permission not service permission

check if exist group and user named if directory and file access mask is right and if owner is right

as last check bind log not systemd for any error


now I don't remember but should even be a debug mode on daemon startup

if I'm not wrong is     -d x          check bind manuals


often is even tmp and specially PID creatiion inside pid directory (if you haven't moved it from conf).

Well it just loads fine when I run from command line i.e. named -u named -n 4 -c /etc/named.conf

well, it may take too long to load them

TimeoutStartSec defaults to DefaultTimeoutStartSec
on Fedora: DefaultTimeoutStartSec=90s

https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.service.html
TimeoutStartSec=
Configures the time to wait for start-up. If a daemon service does not
signal start-up completion within the configured time, the service will
be considered failed and will be shut down again. Takes a unit-less
value in seconds, or a time span value such as "5min 20s". Pass
"infinity" to disable the timeout logic. Defaults to
DefaultTimeoutStartSec= from the manager configuration file, except when
Type=oneshot is used, in which case the timeout is disabled by default
(see systemd-system.conf(5)).
