ZoneRunner might fail to load valid zone files which contain two or more consecutive lines which are $TTL directives, blank lines, comment-only lines, or some combination of the above.
The user cannot load a zone file via the GUI.
DNS : Zones : Zonerunner : Zone List: Create. Select 'Load from File' in Records Creation Method.
Workaround 1: Remove consecutive blank lines, and comment-only lines from the zone file before uploading it to the GUI. Specify the domain in the line following any $ directive lines before uploading the zone file to the GUI. Workaround 2: 1. Freeze zones, stop zrd. 2. Copy zone file from donor GTM to new GTM. 3. Check and adjust chown of zone file. 4. Start zrd, thaw zones. 5. Restart named.
ZoneRunner will no longer crash when parsing zone files containing $TTL directives, blank lines, comment-only lines, or some combination of the above.
