Import a new zone feature

Open skfigved opened this issue 8 years ago • 11 comments

Seems this fnction stopped working after updating to 4.01 and nsedit from master branch.

It does not throw any error message, but simply just sets up a blank zone with just the nameservers and SOA. Unable to import any records.

I have managed to go around the issue by deleting the NS records before zone import. Not selecting "overwrite nameservers" and just adding these manually after import

I can't reproduce this... Can you show me the zone and screenshots of when you are trying to do an import?

I have uploaded a sample zone i just created. If i import the zone with "overwrite nameservers" ticket it will just set up a blank zone. If i import them with "overwrite nameservers" unticket. Then it works but i have to manually correct the nameservers to reflect the new ones

i can confirm this as well, however i don't see it as such big of a problem. In any case you have to type new nameservers, either before or after adding the zone. I would actually recommend to remove the entire feature to overwrite the nameservers.

I haven't had time to reproduce it yet, but I assume that one usually uses this function when you migrate a zone from other name servers to your, which are usually the same. So the function is very useful.

One thing, do your name servers have trailing dots?

tuxis-ie avatar Sep 17 '16 14:09 tuxis-ie

Yes indeed the function is very useful, and i can sometimes do bulk imports of 20-30 zones at a time. I do have trailing dots on the nameservers

skfigved avatar Sep 17 '16 14:09 skfigved

Multiple zones at a time? How do you do that?

tuxis-ie avatar Sep 17 '16 14:09 tuxis-ie

Apologies, it was badly worded. Not multiple zones at a time. But importing them one at a time
