I checked I had already added it.

Do you consider to add ability to overwrite master IP for example per user which created an entry?

There is no privilege separation between users, so any user can edit master IP record.

Hello Guys,

When I update a DNS record trough DA, it does not reflect properly on the DS server, I have to issue the command "/usr/sbin/rndc reload domain.com" to get it updated.

Is there anything I have to do?

PS. I used the lastest script from bdacus01 and I am on Centos 7.

Thanks !

Usually it's normal way primary->secondary DNS interacts. You can setup DNS notification for existing zones.

Dear All,

I get the bellow error in the DS error.log when shutdown directslave.
2021/04/01 00:00:12 SHUTDOWN: SIGTERM received, exiting...
2021/04/01 00:00:12 Cant' delete pidfile: remove /usr/local/directslave/run/directslave.pid: no such file or directory
I have found no pid file in /usr/local/directsave/run

But I can find "pid /usr/local/directslave/run/directslave.pid" in /usr/local/directslave.conf

Anyone have any idea?

I am using CentOS 7 and the latest version directslave 3.4.1 Advanced

Check /usr/local/directslave/run permissions, is it owned by directslave user (uid in /usr/local/directslave/etc/directslave.conf)
Is it writable?

Dear Roman,

Thanks for your prompt reply. I just test and user "named" can write to that directory. Please find the test procedure shown as below.

[root@ds directslave]# grep uid etc/directslave.conf
uid 25

[root@ds directslave]# grep named /etc/passwd
named:x:25:25:Named:/var/named:/sbin/nologin

[root@ds directslave]# runuser -u named touch run/test.txt

[root@ds directslave]# ll run
total 0
-rw-r--r--. 1 named named 0 Apr 2 01:06 test.txt

[root@ds directslave]# systemctl stop directslave
[root@ds directslave]# systemctl start directslave

[root@ds directslave]# ll run
total 0
-rw-r--r--. 1 named named 0 Apr 2 01:06 test.txt

The pid file still cannot be found. No luck.

roman_m · Apr 1, 2021

Try to stop directslave via systemd then run it directly

[root@ds directslave]# /usr/local/directslave/bin/directslave --run

then check if pidfile available now.

Dear Roman,

Yes. It will generate the pid file when run it directly. But the service seems not runnng when I run "/usr/local/directslave/bin/directslave --status". The problem is systemd?

[root@ds /]# /usr/local/directslave/bin/directslave --run

DEBUG: Running as root (0), dropping privileges to 25:25

*** Starting DirectSlave GO/3.4.1 Advanced server ***
*** (c) Roman Mazur <[email protected]> 2012-2020 ***

Going background.

[root@ds /]# /usr/local/directslave/bin/directslave --status

DEBUG: Running as root (0), dropping privileges to 25:25
/usr/local/directslave/bin/directslave is not running.

[root@ds /]# ll /usr/local/directslave/run/

May be...

Please check if DirectSlave installed as systemd native service in /etc/systemd/system/ (file directslave.service)
If not, please install it as directslave.service with following content:

Code:

[Unit]
Description=DirectSlave for DirectAdmin
After=network.target
[Service]
Type=simple
User=named
ExecStart=/usr/local/directslave/bin/directslave --run
Restart=always
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Also delete legacy directslave service from /etc/init.d/ if any.

Then start ds via systemctl and all should be fine now.

[Service]
Type=simple
ExecStart=/usr/local/directslave/bin/directslave --run
Restart=always

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

I've added "User=named" under "Type=simple" in the Service section and save the file

[root@ds /]# systemctl stop directslave
Warning: directslave.service changed on disk. Run 'systemctl daemon-reload' to reload units.
[root@ds /]# systemctl daemon-reload
[root@ds /]# systemctl stop directslave
[root@ds /]# systemctl start directslave
[root@ds /]# ll /usr/local/directslave/run/
total 0

Still no pid file gen in the run directory.

Please check last service exit status via

systemctl status directslave

and post output here.

Thanks!

roman_m · Apr 2, 2021

Yes, I approve, it's a systemd issue. Now investigating it.

Dear Roman,

Directslave service failed if I added "User=named" in the directslave.service.

[root@ds /]# systemctl status directslave
● directslave.service - DirectSlave
Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/directslave.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled)

Process: 16420 ExecStart=/usr/local/directslave/bin/directslave --run (code=exited, status=250)
Main PID: 16420 (code=exited, status=250)

It can be run after I removed "User=named" in the directslave.service. Although there is no pid file. But It seems working fine. Thanks!
