Whenever I try to create a subdomain, the following error appears:

012:10:13-11:33:57: Unable to save zone domain.com: named-zonecheck returned:
loading "domain.com" from "/etc/bind/domain.com.db.temp" class "IN"
dns_rdata_fromtext: /etc/bind/domain.domain.db.temp:27: near '[email protected]': bad dotted quad
dns_rdata_fromtext: /etc/bind/domain.domain.db.temp:30: near '[email protected]': bad dotted quad
zone domain.com/IN: loading from master file /etc/bind/domain.com.db.temp failed: bad dotted quad
zone domain.com/IN: not loaded due to errors.

I have looked at the crashing files in question and found nothing :/
 
Look for errors in your domain.com zone file, specifically at your IP#s, such as two dots in a row, or ending with a dot.

Hello,

Post the whole zone here then, so we could check it.

Firstly, If it's NOT a mistake:

Code: 
domain.com.     14400   IN      NS      ns1.domain.com.
domain.com.     14400   IN      NS      ns2.domain.com.

and your domain.com is really delegated with ns1.domain.com and ns2.domain.com, then you should add two new A records: one for ns1.domain.com and the other one for ns2.domain.com

Secondly, the error posted by you in the very beginning of the thread does not seem to be related to this moment.

Thirdly, in the second line of the file you are missing a full-stop, so it should be like the following:

@ IN SOA ns1.domain.com. hostmaster.domain.com.

It it's not misprint made here on forums, then you should fix it (I'd think it is a misprint made on the forums).

Anyway, having this output is in my opinion useless, as there are no lines 27 and 30 in their original states:

Code: 
dns_rdata_fromtext: /etc/bind/domain.domain.db.temp:27: near '[email protected]': bad dotted quad
 dns_rdata_fromtext: /etc/bind/domain.domain.db.temp:30: near '[email protected]': bad dotted quad
 
That's because the temp file the error is located in, simply does not exist...
 
The temp file doesnt exit till you confirm the add, than DA create the file, check-it and once check success make it a .db file for production, if test fail, da delete the tmp file..

So, that's for sure not the error itself.
