If I change the zone defs to include the full path:
From
zone "relationships123.com." IN { type master; file "relationships123.com.db"; };
To
zone "relationships123.com." IN { type master; file "/var/named/chroot/var/named/relationships123.com.db"; };
in the config file, named starts, but then fails to provide DNS replies with the following error for each request:
general: error: zone relationships123.com/IN: loading from master file /var/named/chroot/var/named/relationships123.com.db failed: file not found general: error: zone relationships123.com/IN: not loaded due to errors.
Nothing was changed in the named configuration prior to updating to 7.2
As usual I am using systemctl start named-chroot to start the server.
Any ideas?

I was able to get named to start and resolve DNS requests by creating two named.conf files. One in /etc/named.conf, that contains zone file definitions that included the absolute path to the zone file, like this:
zone "relationships123.com." IN { type master; file "/var/named/chroot/var/named/relationships123.com.db"; };
And another in /var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf that contains zone file definitions with only the zone file name (no path). Like this:
zone "relationships123.com." IN { type master; file "relationships123.com.db"; };
None of this makes sense to me as the previous configuration (that worked before upgrade to 7.2) used symbolic links in /etc to the files in /var/named/chroot/etc. While trying to figure this out I found, from the documentation, that if the named.conf file does not exist in the chroot structure, a copy of the file in /etc is "copied" to be used by the running chrooted server.
Now, after updating to bind 9.9.4-29.el7_2.1 (CentOS 7.2) from bind 9.9.4-29.el7 (CentOS 7.1, latest) I have to use two separate files to get bind to initialize and run.
Any ideas why I seem to be the only one seeing this?
