[Pdns-users] Slave zone transferring but not saved (sqlite)

[Ben Beuchler]

Greetings...

I am trying to import my first domains (from maradns) via AXFR.  I copied the
schema info directly from the documentation and added a domain entry for the
first domain I want to pull across:

INSERT INTO domains VALUES(1,'mcad.edu','150.253.50.1',NULL,'SLAVE',NULL,NULL);

I've stripped the config down to the bare minimum:

launch=gsqlite
gsqlite-database=/var/pdns/pdns.db
local-address=150.253.10.35
slave=yes

When I fire up pdns in monitor mode, it makes the AXFR request from
150.253.50.1 (I've verified that the data is actually transferred by dumping
the traffic) and says that it has committed it to the sqlite database.
However, when I look at the database, nothing has been added.  This is repeated
every 60s until I kill the server.  Here's what the logs look like:

I'm running pdns 2.9.17 and sqlite 2.8.15.  

Any ideas?

Thanks!
