Resolved BIND says it can't start

MattCaz

Basic Pleskian
I migrated files over from a plesk linux 12.5 to a VPS running Plesk Onyx 17.0.17 and centos 7. It seems that I can't get bind to run with the migrated domains so I removed them all and added a brand new domain to the Onyx server and BIND still won't run. I have checked and Onyx did update the 2 files with the host name for the server.

I have a FQDN of caz.cazserver.com

When I typed in the following command I get this result:
[root@cazserver ~]# /bin/systemctl start named.service

Job for named.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status named.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.

======================

When I type in the usual commands to check the status of BIND, or to stop / start I get this message in terminal: Redirecting to /bin/systemctl status named.service

With this result:
● named.service - Berkeley Internet Name Domain (DNS)

=======================
I've never had this issue when I migrated from plesk panel to plesk panel. I can provide whatever extra info people who are smarter than me might need if you can tell me how to get it for you.

I sincerely appreciate your time and assistance and do not take anything for granted. I realize that I am asking strangers to take time from their busy day to bail my butt out with this issue.

I Re-Imaged the server and set it up with Plesk 12.5 and Centos 6 which is exactly what the old server has. I'll move my sites over 1 at a time. Maybe someday I'll move to Onyx. And Yes UFHH01 I read everything I could about it, including that article (thanks for taking the time to post a reply) but being DNS semi-stupid, I decided to punt!
