Error on External DNS page

Help with Setup/Upgrade
1

I really noticed this earlier, but now maybe this is pointing to something wrong in the install…

When I use the admin page pulldown to go to “External DNS”, I get warned of an error.

If I go to download a zone file I get dialog box saying download error with the content:

<!doctype html>

500 Internal Server Error

Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error and was unable to complete

This MAY be my problem with understanding the MiaB DNS. It never fully installed?

Check sudo journalctl -u mailinabox at the bottom it will show an error.

(also, perhaps not create a new topic for this to keep the forum clean. Or take it to slack?)

I will not post any more on this message other than below and go back to the other message. I am not a regular forum user, or slack user. I am mailing list person… anyway:

And I forget the option to not truncate the journal lines. But something did go south.

I figured as much :grin:

Without truncation would be easier, but this looks like the error you get when retrieving the zonefile. There might be something above that that’s probably more interesting.
