      Same issues here with Bind, I tried everything I could to get this running, I am running on a VM (VMware) Bind currently is NOT compatible with pfSense 2.5.0 period ! Just try to run Bind and rncd on a different port (under the advanced button on the main Bind config window in de web config, and try to run Bind or reinstall Bind and see what happens) I can hardly believe this package was tested on 2.5.0, of course an issue can happen from time to time with a major release, but I am struggling with the Bind control port for years. I did a clean install and restored my configuration, no show for bind what ever I do. It should run on 127.0.0.1 on port 953 and control port on 127.0.0.1 9953 in my configuration

      Here the log when I try to start Bind:

        So I rolled back to pfSense 2.4 because of Bind not working at all
        I have the 2.5.0 Vmware VM still available so if I need to test something of provide logging or so, I will be ready to help

          The same for me. Seems named is going to Segmentation fault if tried to start with -t(chroot).
          Looking forward to a fix.
          Roll back to 2.4

            still don't understand how to reproduce this issue,
            clean install on 2.5 CE with minimal configuration:

              In my case its saying after listening on IP interfaces in the log

              creating TCP socket: address in use

              like port 953 is already in use or so

                Might be a problem in our configs. Hope to have an extra box tomorrow night so I can build a fresh install and load my config sometime after that. I can't take down my failed box. Have uninstalled Bind and turned on unbound and switched to Bind on another box until this is resolved.

                    @matthijs did bind work before you installed your config ?

                      I have a working 2.4.5 VM running (with no bind problems), If I upgrade to 2.5 I have bind issues.
                      I also did a fresh 2.5.0 install and restored my 2.4.5 configuration, in both situations I have bind issues

                        I also have ACME implemented with Bind/DNS, so I have ACME keys in Global Settings (main configuration menu - > Advanced Options button) Maybe this is something in common with other people also having issues with bind and 2.5.0 ?

                          @matthijs I was asking if you tried to install and test Bind on a fresh install of 2.5 before your loaded your config into it ?

                            @wrgraves No I did not do a fresh bind install on a fresh 2.5.0 install (I guess that works fine, like in your situation?)

                              After upgrade to 2.5. Simple run: /usr/local/sbin/named -4 -c /etc/namedb/named.conf -u bind -t /cf/named/ result is Segmentation fault.

                              I'm using common bind setup - 1 view, 2 zones, 4 ACLs, No Sync.

                                @matthijs I have not done that yet. It would take too much downtime. I have a spare system on order that is do tomorrow. Once that's available I should be able to build a stand alone system and try that.

                                  I guess that would work, but I am hoping a full manual reconfiguration of my bind/acme setup with all the dns zones wont be necessary ;-)

                                    @wrgraves I mentioned it earlier, but if you run named from the console and don't give it the configuration file, it seems to work fine.

                                      Could you provide your views/zones/acls configuration?
                                      You can hide your private data by changing domain/IP.

                                            @viktor_g Ok, brought up a test machine and installed a fresh pfsense 2.5 and of course the caching bind config works so I restored my config and of course it gets the segment fault in named and dies so I decided to find an example install for bind, I used this one -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sgn4oNy85_o
                                            And as I went thru it I corrected several mistakes in my zones. Then used Status/Services to restart named and it works now. It looks like a bad zone will segment fault and crash your bind. I've been using these zones for years and that never happened in the past. A new feature?
                                            I put the changes in my production machine.
                                            and now I am up!!!
