The DNS + domain I have is AD Integrated, when I create a subdomain the icon shown in the DNS manager is quite weird and not as expected. Please see the image below "test". It should look like "site". In addition, if I manually create the sub domain, say in this example "site" and I attempt to create a a record under it e.g. "www.site.domain.com" no error will be shown but the record is not created.

Any ideas? Thanks.

Hello,

 

Which DNS provider are you using? (the older one or 2012+)

In normal cases it should create a new zone (similar to a top level domain).

I must say i haven't tested an AD DC dns for a while but code wise it shouldn't change much besides the type of zone.

Regards,

Marco

@Marco I am using the 2012+ provider. Maybe about a year back I was using the older provider (my AD DNS was running on Windows 2008 R2), I upgraded them to 2012 R2 and I then updated the ServiceIDs in dbo.ServiceItems to reflect the new ServiceID.

Ever since then (even in Websitepanel) I have been experiencing problems with sub domains. Are there any logs we can check etc.?

I do remember previously (before I had this problem) that it creates a similar top level domain.

hmm for a test do newly created hosting spaces also create a subdomain in the same odd way?

(if so it might be due to packageservices table)

@Marco I tried creating a new hosting space and then adding a sub domain and it has the same result.

I also found out that now it does not create the DNS as an "Active Directory Integrated Zone" which is what i want. Now it creates the zone as Primary and I have to change the zone manually to AD Integrated - I wonder if it is related?
