For BIND 9.20.7 and 9.21.6 we changed the service type from "forking" to
"notify", also ExecStart now has the "-f" option:
-[Service]
-Type=forking
-ExecStart=/opt/isc/isc-bind/root/usr/sbin/named -u named
+[Service]
+Type=notify
+ExecStart=/opt/isc/isc-bind/root/usr/sbin/named -u named -f
Could you please give us the output of "systemctl status
isc-bind-named.service" a few seconds after the service started? I'd be
surprised to find it in the "Active: active (running)" state.
I failed to reproduce your problem on a clean Rocky Linux 8.10.

Hi everyone,
After updating my isc-bind packages from 9.20.6-1.2 to
9.20.7-1.2, i try to start the service but it always « shutdown » by
himself. My server is a Rocky Linux 8.10 and with the old version
(9.20.6) everything is working fine since many mounths. Here is a the
part of the output log (with debug enable) where i saw the service going
down (see netmgr ans shutting down below)! Any idea someone?
Thanks in advance
