virtualmin is reporting BIND DNS Server is not running and i am able to get to all sites i have configured.
bind is running as indicated by ps auxw | grep named
bind 9238 0.0 0.3 52892 11104 ? Ssl 18:29 0:00 /usr/sbin/named -u bind root 9545 0.0 0.2 51220 9640 ? Ssl 18:33 0:00 /usr/sbin/named -c /etc/bind/named.conf
a check of my config says
BIND DNS server is installed, and the system is configured to use it.
i have tried to restart bind with no luck.
this happened after upgrading virtualmin to ver 2.76 from 2.72
Status:
Closed (fixed)

Does this still happen if you click the "Refresh system information" link in the top-right of the System Information page?

If you go to Webmin -> Servers -> BIND DNS Server, does it show BIND as running or not? If the "Start BIND" link appears in the top-right, that means Virtualmin thinks it is down ..

the start BIND link is present in webmin

Ok, so it looks like Webmin thinks BIND isn't running. If you click on the Module Config link and go to the "System configuration" section, is the "Default PID file location(s)" set correctly?
