Are there any errors in the log? To start it you should run "systemctl start named.service"

To enable startup on boot, "systemctl enable named.service"
To disable startup on boot, "systemctl disable named.service"

Hello Everyone,

I am trying to get a DNS/DHCP server up and running using CentOS 7. I have modified the /etc/named.conf file and created the zone files. I attempt to start the named service with 'systemctl start named,' and it fails. Upon investigating 'systemctl status named.service,' it shows that BIND will not start. BIND is installed on the system. I read quite a few forums to no avail. Some were saying that the issue is with the bind-chroot package (which I re-installed), another stated that it was SElinux (I ran 'restorecon /etc/named.conf' 'touch /.autorelabel' 'reboot'). That also did not resolve the issue. Does anyone have an idea as to why BIND will not start?
