Hi, Suddenly my clients server’s Suddenly Power DNS and PureFTPD Stopped working. After clicking on restart and start button it does nothing.
I was running cyberpanel v1.8.0. And then an update might solve the problem. So i upgraded and its still not working. What should i do ?
Same here!
CentOS 7, Cyberpanel 1.9
I updated CentOS and Cyberpanel, but it’s still not working.
Server status > Services status page indicates: OpenLiteSpeed - Running, MariaDB - Running, PowerDNS - Stopped (with green Play icon) and PureFTPd - Stopped (with orange Pause icon).
Same here on my Production Server :neutral:
Unable to open /etc/pdns/pdns.conf
I’m using this code as the solution to the same problem I have;
pdns_server --config-dir=/etc/pdns/
but after a while the power dns shuts down again.
how do i do that ? can you elaborate. Actually I am very new to all this vps server management.

I run this command in my ssh command line interface and power dns and pure ftp started .
Dont know how much time this will remain solved.
Thanks for the help.

Confirm costlasweb! Same problem here! Command “chown pdns:pdns /etc/pdns/pdns.conf” doesn’t work anymore.
I think i should move to another panel like centos web panel. these problems are irritating and also we loose our reputation in front of clients.
It should be like
[root@ok7jva7ctt pdns]# ls -la
total 44
drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 4096 Oct 4 02:00 .
drwxr-xr-x. 89 root root 4096 Sep 18 12:50 ..
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 15714 Aug 8 15:06 pdns.conf
Working now! I have changed pdns.conf permissions:
chmod 666 /etc/pdns/pdns.conf
Yeah for anyone else if you “stat” the file it should show the exact number like the example with 644 provided by cyberpanel above. Mine was actually set to 600 and was working and tested with 666 to like above and it also works. So 600,644,666 should work.
CentOS
chown root:root /etc/pdns/pdns.conf
chmod 644 /etc/pdns/pdns.conf
Ubuntu path is slightly different.
chown root:root /etc/powerdns/pdns.conf
chmod 644 /etc/powerdns/pdns.conf
Then use systemctl to start/stop/restart
systemctl start pdns
systemctl restart pdns
systemctl status pdns

Centos

yeah, this was most likely due to running it manually as a command “pdns_server --config-dir=/etc/pdns/” which got killed vs in daemon mode via systemctl like “systemctl restart pdns” how it’s normally managed.
thanks everyone, I have solved it. I did it like this …
