powerdns ?bug?

Hello,

I may have found a bug in ISPConfig (it worked correctly in 3.2.11p1, but it certainly doesn't in the latest version)!

If I've understood the code correctly, when I create a domain from a template, the following functions run and generate the DNS records:

1. SOA insert
   
   
2. RR insert (as many as needed)
   
   
3. SOA update

The first problem I found during debugging is that, during the SOA insert, the value of the 'active' key in the $data["new"] array is 'N', which means the domain ID is not created. This results in the RRs (Resource Records) being created in the database, but they are incomplete.

RR insert debug:

Since the SOA is not created in either the domain or the records table, the zone_id becomes NULL. Consequently, PowerDNS cannot assign the RRs (Resource Records) to the domain.

 

when ispconfig/interface/lib/classes/dns_wizard.inc.php change 271 line to
"active" => 'Y', // Activated later when all DNS records are added.

Powerdns zone is good!!!
