Your server is unable to resolve the IP addresses for domain names. Please check your /etc/resolv.conf if the nameservers listed there are working and reachable from your server.
Re: Till, thanks for your reply. Apt-get works already now. One more question: In ISPConfig > Management > Server > Settings > DNS, i have to mention two DNS-servers: Default Ns1: ? Default Ns2: ? Which DNS-servers have i have to mentioned here, the IP-address of my own server, which runs Bind9 or the DNS-resolvers provided by the network of the colocation?
These DNS Servers where used as defaults in the ISPConfig DNS-Manager. So you should enter the domain of your server as ns1 and the domain of the secondary server that you want to use as ns2.
hello, I had the same issue as above, I do not know why but my /etc/resolv.conf contained also this line: nameserver localhost ... I tok it out and its all working again. Anyone has got any clue as to how that line came to be there? the only change I made was to tell my bind configuration: Do full recursive lookups for clients? NO as I did not want an open DNS server. could that have been the reason?
