DNS Server (BIND) Error

Guest
My DNS Server stopped for some reason and now i cannot restart it i get this message

Error: Unable to make action: Unable to manage service by dnsmng: dnsmng: Service /etc/init.d/named failed to start
System error 2: No such file or directory ('--start', 'dns')

Please help
 
This error will occur for example if you create MX or TXT record which will point to CNAME record. I suggest you try to start named server with
# /etc/init.d/named start

and try to find zone with error record in /var/log/messages log file.
