unable to delzone

[BÖSCH Christian]

OS running is FreeBSD 12.1 with bind version 9.16.7.

I'm running rndc commands as root user.

Yes, the zone was created with rndc addzone. And it's also possible to add and delete other zones this way.

Only the one particular zone throws this error. 

Is there a way to manually clean or rebuild the nzd database?

 

Thanks, Christian

There are a LOT of possibilities why this isn't working.  The first two things I'd check is trying this action again as root (if you're not already) to make sure this action isn't trying something that's DAC prohibited and checking the SELinux / AppArmor log (if you're running them) to see if this particular action (it doesn't sound like it's something you do often) is making a system call that's forbidden by the MAC.  

 

These are suggestions to see if the issue is at the OS level, of course.  I'm assuming what you're doing is permitted in the application (i.e. the zone you're trying to delete was created with rndc addzone) but you haven't provided enough detail to determine that.

 

HTH,

 

Scott

Hi,

 

I want to delete a zone with:

rndc delzone domain.org

 

In the logfile I get:

Oct 12 10:16:30 nsmaster named[669]: general: received control channel command 'delzone domain.org'

Oct 12 10:16:30 nsmaster named[669]: general: zone domain.org scheduled for removal via delzone

Oct 12 10:16:30 nsmaster named[669]: general: deleting zone domain.org in view _default via delzone

Oct 12 10:16:30 nsmaster named[669]: general: mdb_txn_begin: Invalid argument

Oct 12 10:16:30 nsmaster named[669]: general: unable to open NZD database for '_default.nzd'

Oct 12 10:16:30 nsmaster named[669]: general: unable to delete zone configuration: failure

 

And so in the nzd db the config remains active:

named-nzd2nzf _default.nzd | grep domain.org

zone "domain.org" { type master; file "../dynamic/domain.org"; };

 

So why can the nzd db not be opened? And how can that be solved?

 

Thanks in advance,

Christian
