I would use a notice to warn the user about the implications of this setup NOT stop the installer. This halting of the installer is basically the equivalent to putting in a fatal error and is extremely bad from a UX perspective.
We have already had 5+ complains of people unable to install because of this. If you want to support 100's of complains going forward then leave it as it is.
if I was a hosting provider, I would not want to own only 1 server and drop everything on it. Or I would not be nor professional, nor recommendable.
It sounds me like if my dentist want to install his job around a kitchen chair. I would no more agree.
A professional hosting would have at least 2 servers for DNS hosting and 1 (or more) server(s) for client domains hosting.
Until now, ZPanel (and Sentora) does not provide "professional" service for this and I even wonder if it would not be betterthat the installer does not install bind at all, and provide another installer to setup DNS mangement.
It is from our responsability to bring it on a highter step.
I will open a thread in staff forum to discuss about it and take choices (and I will folow the majority),
Users opinion is welcome too.
