Latest bind9 update will not launch after upgrade.

[Daniel J. Luke]

It shut down because that's when you stopped it? Some other reason?

The startupitem stuff in the Portfile was last changed 2020-12-31, so I don't think that's related to any problem with the latest bind9 port.

If you try and start named manually with a high debug level (and optionally with -g so it forces all logging to stderr) you may get some more insight on why it doesn't want to run for you now.

However this has been the case for some time and has not caused problems in the past. I have commented out the zones in the config but it still will not launch.
