title: Error creating DNS HostedZone in k8 (on aws)
body: <p>I was in the process of creating a k8 cluster with kops on aws, and I ran into an interesting exception:</p>
  
  <pre><code>error running task "DNSZone/foobar" (1m42s remaining to succeed): error creating DNS HostedZone "": InvalidParameter: 1 validation error(s) found.
  - missing required field, CreateHostedZoneInput.Name.
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I created a hosted zone on Route 53 and set the <strong>zone</strong> type to <strong>private</strong>.</p>
  
  <p>I also modified the following VPC settings to "true":</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li><strong>enableDnsHostnames</strong> </li>
  <li><strong>enableDnsSupport</strong></li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>used software:</p>
  
  <p><strong>kops - Version 1.6.1 (git-22b22cc)</strong></p>
  
  <p><strong>kubectl - Client Version: version.Info{Major:"1", Minor:"8"...}</strong></p>
  
  <p>I deleted the cluster and created it again, but the same exception persisted. So there must be something I did wrong.</p>
  
  <p>Any advice would be helpful.</p>
  
  <p>tnx,
  Tom</p>
