Ok, I'm an idiot. Found the problem. I did apt-get the package to install and assumed it was the latest and greatest. The dump/monitor doesn't show version when it has an error. After I deleted all the API lines, the server started. When I dumped the log it showed the version.. PowerDNS version 3.3.1...which has no API support. Eventually, Koko was right ;)
I tried the newest version 3.4.3 through instructions ( https://doc.powerdns.com/md/authoritative/installation/) via dpkg install. But when I try to install the pdns-backend-mysql package it won't install, saying it needs pdns 3.3.1. I tried to first install pdns 3.3.1 and get rid off it via dpkg replacing it with pdns 3.4.3. But that doesn't work. Is there a newer version I need to get? 2015-03-05 12:30 GMT+01:00 Jan-Piet Mens <jpmens....@gmail.com>: > > *Mar 05 06:04:28 Fatal error: Trying to set unexisting parameter > > 'webserver-allow-from'* > > IIRC (I don't feel like going back to study all this) you've been > telling us all the time that all was fine... > > Before bothering with the API, make sure your PowerDNS server starts > without errors.
