[Pdns-users] Malformed message error

[Graham White]

Hi I am receiving these error messages when I am trying to query certain record types with powerdns and a mysql backend. Certain queries are working fine and some
aren't, some examples follow:

dig @172.16.0.151 test.com 

;; QUESTION SECTION:
;test.com.                 IN      A
 
;; ANSWER SECTION:
test.com.          172800  IN      A       172.16.0.100
--------------------
dig @172.16.0.151 test.com NS

;; Warning: Message parser reports malformed message packet.
;; Truncated, retrying in TCP mode.
;; Connection to 172.16.0.151#53(172.16.0.151) for test.com failed: connection refused.

It seems like query types of NS, MX or ANY are failing while A SOA and PTR are fine.  I can't see any error messages in the logs as to why.

Mysql tables were built as specified by the documentation. 

Here is an overview of the insert statements I used for mysql:

insert into domains (name,type) values ('test.com','NATIVE');

insert into records (domain_id, name,type,content,ttl,prio) select id ,'test.com', 'SOA', 
'ns1.test.com. dnsadmin.test.com. 20030501 28800 7200 1209600 3600', 172800, 0 from domains 
where name='test.com';

insert into records (domain_id, name,type,content,ttl,prio) select id ,'test.com', 
'A', '172.16.0.100', 172800, 0 from domains where name='test.com';

insert into records (domain_id, name,type,content,ttl,prio) select id ,'test.com', 
'NS', 'ns1.test.com', 172800, 0 from domains where name='test.com';

insert into records (domain_id, name,type,content,ttl,prio) select id ,'test.com', 
'NS', 'ns2.test.com', 172800, 0 from domains where name='test.com';

insert into records (domain_id, name,type,content,ttl,prio) select id ,'ns1.test.com', 
'A', '172.16.0.1', 172800, 0 from domains where name='test.com';

insert into records (domain_id, name,type,content,ttl,prio) select id ,'ns2.test.com', 
'A', '172.16.0.2', 172800, 0 from domains where name='test.com';

If I do a query on the A record for ns1 or ns2.test.com then those come back fine. Perhaps my Insert statements for the NS entries are off?
Any help on this is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
