I have also met this problems on Ubuntu 12.04 with pdns-server and pdns- backend-mysql packages version 3.0-1.1ubuntu1.
PowerDNS was installed and worked with MySQL. I then included a known good BIND configuration from another server to /etc/bind/named.conf.local . Then copied /usr/share/doc/pdns- server/examples/pdns.local.bind to /etc/powerdns/pdns.d/pdns.local.bind, added "launch=bind" and uncommented the "bind-example-zones" and "bind- config=/etc/bind/named.conf.local" lines.

Neither seemed to make any difference. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1082528 Title: No bind backend compiled in To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pdns/+bug/1082528/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
