Problem with default nameservers

Russell Pope
Recently we've started getting errors any time we try to add domains, remove domains, subdomains and more. An example is removing a subdomain: There was a problem removing the subdomain "corp.example.com". Bind reloading on server01 using rndc zone: [example.com] [A fatal error or timeout occurred while processing this directive.] Even with the error it still processes the request, However if I try to set up forwarding for a subdomain it will not save it. Also, even more odd is that if we go to a subdomain which doesn't exist, like for example NotReal.example.com we're getting redirected to another website, this happens for any subdomain to any domain hosted by us.

    *Update* I found out why subdomains where being redirected, Under "Nameserver Record Report" for my ns2 there were "A" records for * and IP 198.89.xxx.xx, it was only for my ns2 records. Removed them from all domains and the subdomain redirects have stopped. I am still getting errors when adding subdomains, and if I try to add a redirect to an existing subdomain I am getting: "testrew.example.com" is currently being redirected to: ." and it doesn't save the redirect

    I tail'd the log error_log file, when I attempted to add a subdomain I get:

    Hello, Could you verify there are no filesystem issues on the server (e.g. partitions in read-only mode)? For instance, the error message suggests cPanel is unable to read directories such as /var/cpanel/users and /usr/local/cpanel/Cpanel/SSL/Auto/Provider. Try browsing to those directories and creating test files. Here are some sample commands to use:
    mkdir /var/cpanel/users/cpanel-testing touch /var/cpanel/users/cpanel-testing/123 stat /var/cpanel/users
    Thank you.
