Hi Daniel

Thanks, that fixed it.

I see, it is not really recommended to blindly update knot as you can
easily break your zones and sometimes also have to do manual work before
updating.

I heard also from other people that updating broke some of their stuff,
so maybe that's something to keep an eye on for you guys ;) . However,
great work with the part that works fine!


Thanks for this feedback :-) We really try not to complicate upgrading.
Unfortunately, nobody is perfect.

Best,
Daniel

Best regards and thank you for your help
Simon

Simon,

We have extended the migration section in the documentation
https://www.knot-dns.cz/docs/2.8/html/migration.html#upgrade-2-7-x-to-2-8-x
Probably, it's your case.

Hi @all

I was trying to migrate knot to a new server with Ubuntu 18.04 and knot
2.8.0. I managed this by just copying the content of /var/lib/knot/*
from the old to the new server.

One of my domains threw an error when starting knot:
knotd[5186]: error: [<zone>] zone event 'load' failed (malformed data)

keymgr throws the same error. I dumped the data out of the 2.7.6
installation with mdb_dump and imported it into the 2.8.0 installation,
which did not help.

I then uninstalled 2.8.0 on the new server and installed 2.7.6, migrated
data from the old server with the same procedure and it worked, no
errors.

Just out of curiosity I upgraded then the new server from 2.7.6 to 2.8.0
to see what will happen: It was the exact same behaviour, the zone
couldn't load.

How can I proceed here? There is obviously something wrong that the
update breaks the loading of the zone. Is this on my end or a bug in
knot?


Thanks
Simon
