        @Katoz said in Bind doesn't work after reinstall it:

        in /usr/local/pkg there was no file releted to bind

        A file that doesn't exist can't throw errors.
        You said :

        @Katoz said in Bind doesn't work after reinstall it:

        thrown in /usr/local/pkg/bind.inc on line 305

        thus bind.inc exists over there.

        @Katoz said in Bind doesn't work after reinstall it:

        between <bind> and </bindviews> included?

        Iadvise you to remove everything between
        <bind>
        and
        </bind>

        Btw : viconfig is fun.
        But it's vi .... so .... well ... I understand.
        Plan 2 from @kiokoman is probably better.

        No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
        Edit : and where are the logs ??

          Maybe I misunderstood what you told me before but I did this:

          -Uninstalled Bind from the GUI
          -I checked if there were still files related to Bind in /usr/local/pkg
          -I modified the configuration file and removed the lines
          -Restore the file

          Then I installed Bind again but nothing has changed and continues to throw errors, I did it immediately after the message from @kiokoman but I forgot to press "Submit"

              I only found /usr/local/share/licenses/bind-tools-9.12.2P1 but it was not in the list, I delete it anyway?

                bah it will be reinstalled anyway. most importantly.. the problem is not caused by bind leftover..

                so let's see what that 305 lines do...

                // Config Zone domain
                	// Add ACLS
                bla bla bla
                array("name" => "none", "description" => "BIND Built-in ACL", "row" => array("value" => "", "description" => ""));
                

                are you sure you have deleted
                <bind></bind>
                <bindzone></bindzone>
                <bindviews></bindviews>
                from the config ?
                it is failing to configure the array for "BIND Built-in ACL" that should be inside the config

                you should search for "bind" in all your config.

                there are 2 ways to repair this. the ease one and the time consuming one

                the ease one but less fun .. would be to select a previusly working config. like the one done before installing bind. 😂

                  I'm sure I've deleted those lines, there are others but they are:

                  		<description><![CDATA[(system): Removed bind package.]]></description>
                  		<username>(system)</username>
                  

                  I have no idea when I installed Bind, I have been trying to make it work for months and in any case Config History only goes up to today at noon.
                  I assume the problem is the configuration file so even if I did a clean install of Pfsense and restore the file the problem remains

                          It worked! I changed the configuration file and installed bind and now appears in the services menu. Now I just have to see if it really works but I'm too tired, I'll do it tomorrow.

                          In the meantime, thank you all for helping me :)
