named (bind) unable to run with lts kernel (3.10.26-1-lts) [Solved]

about three days ago I installed the package linux-lts on my server and booted up the new kernel (3.10.26-1-lts).  Everything works the same except port 53 is closed and my nameserver doesn't work.  

[jesse@Rome ~]$ systemctl status named

outputs the same with both kernels (the fully functional kernel is 3.12.7-2-ARCH).  When I run an nmap scan from my workstation it shows port 53 as closed with lts and open with 3.12  I tried stopping my firewall (iptables) but that did not help.  Any suggestions on how I could go about diagnosing this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,
Can you post journalctl log so we could find some information why BIND doesn't start. Also, try to start BIND from cli and paste output here?

Ok, it seems that BIND is up and running. listen-on parameter tells daemon to listen on these two IP addresses.
Can you post netstat -nltu (or netstat -nltu) output? Does telnet to localhost/192.168.1.12 53 works?

Again looking at the log, this line:

And then this:

Could you try to change named.service to load config from /srv/named/etc/named.conf? I see it already has -t flag that points to /srv/named.

Re: named (bind) unable to run with lts kernel (3.10.26-1-lts) [Solved]

both kernels use config from /srv/named/etc/named.conf already.  I copied it to /etc/named.conf but that didn't change anything.

Re: named (bind) unable to run with lts kernel (3.10.26-1-lts) [Solved]

I'm embarrassed to have to report that the following command fixes the problem:

sudo systemctl restart named

I guess I never tried that before.  I apologize for that oversight.  Nevertheless, it is still a minor problem that BIND doesn't work automatically at boot so I am going to leave this topic as unsolved.  Unless forum policy dictates that it would be more appropriate to close it and open a new topic.  I am amenable.

BTW, thanks for all your help Duka.

Re: named (bind) unable to run with lts kernel (3.10.26-1-lts) [Solved]

adding the following to the service file causes named to start up properly at boot:

Type=idle

Re: named (bind) unable to run with lts kernel (3.10.26-1-lts) [Solved]

Maybe you should file a bug report on this.  The service file is Arch provided (it doesn't come from upstream), and I imagine that there are far fewer people trying to use BIND/named in combination with the LTS kernel, than the normal kernel.  Not to mention BIND seems to no longer be the absolute default choice.

Also, please use code tags for things like that mass amount of code output.  You can see how to do this by following the BBCode link below (and quite a bit more).

Finally, please mark the thread as [Solved] if you have found a solution you are satisfied with.  This can be done by editing the first post.

Nice work laertiades.  BTW, those are some amazing code boxes!
