    Hey there! This sounds like it is related to the case CPANEL-36101, which is an issue with PowerDNS not starting due to outdated kernels. Can you try the workaround mentioned in this article?

    Hi, It did not correct the issue ... this is the message I am getting: Waiting for "pdns" to start "Waiting for named,mydns,nsd,pdns_server to shutdown ... not running. "failed.

    I corrected the issue by changing it back to BIND and everything is working correctly. Thank you.

    That was going to be my next short-term recommendation, switching the system to BIND. If you'd like us to investigate directly you're always welcome to submit a ticket to our team so we can check that out, as we're happy to work during non-peak hours for your system and users.

    I have this exact issue, but the workaround you have linked to above no longer opens. I also switched back to BIND.

    @ariehkovler - since this is a defect article, you have to be signed into our ticket system in order to access that link. Switching to BIND would also get things working if your provider is not able to update the kernel.

    Switching to BIND did, indeed, get things working. What kernel should I be asking my provider to update?

    I'm glad that's working well :D While there isn't a specific kernel version, they would need to ensure it supports IPv6.

    Mismo problema tras actualizar a V94.0.2. Probada la soluci"n de a"adir en /etc/pdns/pdns.conf la linea: local-address=0.0.0.0 pero no resuelve la incidencia. Cambiado a BIND vuelta a la normalidad Same problem after upgrading to V94.0.2. Tried the solution of adding in /etc/pdns/pdns.conf the line: local-address=0.0.0.0.0 but it does not solve the issue. Switched to BIND and back to normal.

    @sdmg - Es probable que su problema est" relacionado con el kernel de la m"quina. "Tu anfitri"n no puede actualizarlo? Si no es as", puede probar las soluciones alternativas mencionadas aqu": or you can keep the system on BIND until they are able to update the kernel.

    Hello guys, same issue here. It only got fixed by switching to Bind. Should I worry if this server is part of a cluster where every other member and the master itself are using powerdns?

    @Kent Brockman - what kernel is the system running? It doesn't really matter if it's part of a cluster or not.

    # uname -r 3.10.0-229.20.1.el7.centos.plus.x86_64
    Do you know what kernel versions are the best to workaround this issue?

    That's a pretty old one from what I'm seeing as that was released in 2015:

    I just checked a CentOS 7 box that had recently been updated and I show this: # uname -r 3.10.0-1160.15.2.el7.x86_64
