    As the error message states, there are no A records for ns1 & ns2. Add these records: [QUOTE] ns1 14400 IN A ns2 14400 IN A

    The nameservers do have A records (otherwise the other domains on the server wouldn't resolve either). Furthermore, I don't get error when I edit any other zone.

    If the name servers are: ns1.domain.com and ns2.domain.com then the A records of ns1 & ns2 must be in the DNS zone of the domain domain.com (and only there). You were showing the DNS zone of domain.com, and there are NO A records for ns1 & ns2. Are the name servers registered in the registrar of domain.com and pointing to correct IPs?

    I added the A records of ns1 and ns2 and worked. Thanks queitFinn :)

    Michael, isn't this more of a bug with the way cPanel handles primary nameserver's than anything else? I've seen this several times as well and it can get aggravating if one forgets to check for it. Upon initial setup of cPanel you designate hostname & default nameserver's which creates DNS zones for ns1 & ns2.mydomain.com.db, these will work fine as long as you don't have an account for mydomain.com. As soon as you add such an account it the dns zone for mydomain.com will fail to load as it has NS records set for ns1/ns2.mydomain.com but since cPanel does not automatically enter the A records into that zone file it will fail. Your left with manually entering A records into that zone file as you cannot even use cPanel's automatic "assign A record" to the nameserver feature. Just curious if this is even on the radar with bug fixes?

    There is an open internal case regarding this issue. For reference, the case number is 58403. There is currently no planned resolution or time frame for when the issue might be addressed, however I have linked this thread to the case. Thank you.
