I just moved my website to a new server. New server IP = 217.23.9.121

I'm running my domain on IntoDns.com

It showing me errors such as:

-Missing nameservers reported by your nameservers
-Nameservers not responding
-and more

My setup is shown in this Screenshot

My website runs on nginx

My question is, why am I getting these errors ? Is my dns/nameserver setup (in the screenshot) incorrect? Also, my visitors who have already propagated to the new server IP report the website is not working.

  1. Website software is irrelevant here
  2. Your config (according to screenshot and AXFR) is extremely bad - re-think and re-read, there and how use @ shorthand

(compare with your amount of RR in zone)

  • nslookup

    nslookup NS1.ANIMEFUSHIGI.COM Server: server1.eka-net.ru Address: 10.0.10.1

    Non-authoritative answer: Name: NS1.ANIMEFUSHIGI.COM Address: 217.23.1.90

    nslookup NS2.ANIMEFUSHIGI.COM Server: server1.eka-net.ru Address: 10.0.10.1

    Non-authoritative answer: Name: NS2.ANIMEFUSHIGI.COM Address: 217.23.1.90

And unused 217.23.1.90 still serve zone (hidden primary) and declared as authoritative server.

Resume

Kill outdated zone on old host

In registrar data fix records about your NSes and write IP

Two NSes on same IP is useless thing - spread in different nets or remove NS ns2

Because your authoritative name servers are within the domain that they're authoritative for, you have a loop. See this question for a detailed explanation.

What you need is to set up DNS glue records with your registrar - this allows for the delegating server (the .com servers) to provide a pointer to the IP address of the authoritative server for your domain, breaking the loop.

Note: I am assuming that ANIMEFUSHIGI.COM is your domain name from the screenshot.

The name servers of the domain NS1.ANIMEFUSHIGI.COM and NS2.ANIMEFUSHIGI.COM do not resolve.

When you mention you've moved your website, did you move the DNS of the domain as well ? If yes, then you'll need to configure DNS on the new server.

If the DNS is on the same server and only the website has been moved, then you'd have to only change the DNS A record of the domain leaving everything else intact.

  • The dns has been setup on the new server, as shown in the screenshot. Ns1 and ns2 have A records to our IP Feb 24, 2012 at 5:03
  • Change authoritative DNS, when you change webhost is always bad idea. Change authoritative DNS, which referenced inside zone, when you change webhost - just terrible idea Feb 24, 2012 at 20:35
