Can not start Plesk Name Server

I have a serious issue with my Plesk for Windows 8.2 Installation.

The Plesk Name Server service refuses to start. All my sites are down.

I tried restarting Plesk DNS service via Plesk Control Panel. Tried satring the service via Adm. tools. I have rebooted the server: I have run plesk reconfigurator and rebooted. All no luck.

The error I get back when I try to start DNS;

Could not start Plesk Name Server Service on local computer. Eror 1067: The process terminated unexpectedly.


I have noticed the SSL wrapper services is not running either.

Does anybody have an idea?

Problem resolved: For some strange reason I had duplicate domain entries in the file name.conf in the swsoft\plesk\dns\etc directory. After removal of the duplicates BIND could be started again.
 
Yes, a good place to check the the server event viewer under application errors.
