Named won't start after Upgrade to 24.04 [SOLVED]

[gusarg81]

I'm sure the cause of the problem is within KeyHelp
Well, I am not completly sure, but started to happen after upgrade to 24.04 (using KeyHelp instructions/script).


Server operating system + version
(e.g. Ubuntu 24.04)


KeyHelp version + build number
24.2


Problem description / error messages
Named fails to start; it tries but it fails:

2024-10-24T11:08:32.422075-03:00 server systemd[1]: named.service: Failed with result 'timeout'.
2024-10-24T11:08:32.422817-03:00 server systemd[1]: Failed to start named.service - BIND Domain Name Server.

Does

Code: Select all

named-checkconf

show any output?

What does systemctl status named show?

First, it thought the problem was caused by running systemd-resolve (which maybe was enabled during Ubuntu upgrade process?), but after stopped and disabled it, still I can´t manage named service to finish to start (it just time out and keeps trying).

named-checkconf gives no ouput.

EDIT:

Systemd journal:

And keeps like that, trying and trying but always timeout.

Attaching systemd journal from named just in case.

Ok, seems I've resolved it. One for the files not replaced during the Ubuntu 24.04 (because in KeyHelp upgrade guide explicit says that files should not replaced during upgrade process) was causing the problem: /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.named

So, I've replaced it for the upgraded file from Ubuntu 24.04 and now named is starting just fine.
