DNSSEC not installed correctly

Hello,

I followed the manual https://help.directadmin.com/item.php?id=651 for installing DNSSEC.
Previously it worked splendid, and the button/link "generate keys" was added to the DA pannel.

However, I had to do a reinstall. When running the dnssec installer, it told me to add: dnssec-lookaside auto; to named.conf (in the options{} part). So I did...

In the DNS config I see:

DNSSEC - DNS Security (Blue header)
Keys Not yet generated

However, the button generate key, I cannot find.

I tried restarting DA, reinstalling the script, etc... in the DA config on the bottom: dnssec=1 is there...

So, how to get the button "Generate Keys"

Furthermore, if I generate the keys & sign with command line, it all works fine....

Suggestions?


Since I assume named.conf has something to do with it, here it is...
Code:
acl "trusted" {
        localhost;
        127.0.0.1;
        # here the IPv4 / IPv6 addresses for AXFR
};

options {
        allow-transfer { trusted; };
        forwarders { 127.0.0.1; };
        listen-on port 53 { 127.0.0.1; #serverIPv4 ADDRESS#; };
        listen-on-v6 port 53 { ::1; #serverIPv6 ADDRESS#; };
        directory       "/var/named";
        dump-file       "/var/named/data/cache_dump.db";
        statistics-file "/var/named/data/named_stats.txt";
        memstatistics-file "/var/named/data/named_mem_stats.txt";
        #allow-query     { trusted; };

        /*

         - If your recursive DNS server has a public IP address, you MUST enable access

        //recursion yes;

        dnssec-enable yes;
        dnssec-validation yes;
        dnssec-lookaside auto;

        /* Path to ISC DLV key */
        bindkeys-file "/etc/named.iscdlv.key";

        pid-file "/run/named/named.pid";
        session-keyfile "/run/named/session.key";
};

logging {
        channel default_debug {
                file "data/named.run";
                severity dynamic;
        };
};

zone "." IN {
        type hint;
        file "named.ca";
};

include "/etc/named.rfc1912.zones";
include "/etc/named.root.key";

zone "somedomain.com" { type master; file "/var/named/somedomain.com.db.signed"; };
 
Hello,

in the DA config on the bottom: dnssec=1 is there...

do you have a break after it? empty line?


What you see with

Code:
/usr/local/directadmin/directadmin c | grep ^dnssec=
?
 
[...cut]

In the DNS config I see:

DNSSEC - DNS Security (Blue header)
Keys Not yet generated

However, the button generate key, I cannot find.

I tried restarting DA, reinstalling the script, etc... in the DA config on the bottom: dnssec=1 is there...

So, how to get the button "Generate Keys"
[...cut]

Did you look to generate keys in user lever or admin level? Because it is only available in admin level:

To enable DNSSEC on a domain, go to: Admin Level -> DNS Admin -> domain.com
From: https://help.directadmin.com/item.php?id=651

Right.... *bangs head to table*, reading is an art on its own. I went to the user level DNS, now realising it would only be available through admin.
@DA: a small note in the help that DNSSEC is not available in the user DNS settings, would be appreciated by users like me
