What do the logs say?
Linux is just like a good domestic or business partner, in that it whines
very clearly to tell you about problems and issues....
So, bind will usually not start if it cannot load any of the conf files.
Please post the logs.
And/or show us:
ls -lF /etc/named* /var/run/
rpm -V caching-nameserver
cat /etc/sysconfig/named
ls -laZ /etc/named.conf /var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf
You could try turning off SELINUX just as a test and see if she starts
(although I would not run a bind server without SELINUX enabled)?
You could also enter:
restorecon /etc/named.conf
But it might also be an indication of a wider issue with SELINUX (fixed as
follows):
touch /.autorelabel
reboot
I would just relabel and reboot - should come right up?
