[Pdns-users] Can't start pdns 4.x on Debian after install from pdns repo

[jim at archer.net]

Hi All…

I just installed pdns 4.x on Debian Jesse. I followed the instructions on the wen site and the package appeared to install correctly, but I get the error pasted below when I try to start it. I am trying to use it with Postgres 9. Googling revealed that I should comment out a module line in the conf file, but my conf file does not have that line.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

-- Unit pdns.service has begun starting up.
