Hostname A entry missing in cpanel.

Wednesday, April 1st, 2009

Whenever you get a cPanel dedicated server or a VPS cPanel server from your service provider once cPanel is setup, you may come around an error “Your hostname A entry is missing”

This comes with a popup, you can click on the Add button within the popup. This will add A entry for your hostname.

You can check this in the DNS zone of the hostname. Which can be found at this path: /var/named/your.hostname.db

That’s it!

If you need to change hostname of your server, you can check it here.
