I had similar problem and finally figured it out after spending 1 hour working on the error.

Make the following modification on your /etc/named.conf file and let me know if this works.

options {
listen-on port 53 { 127.0.0.1; Your network ipaddr; };
#listen-on-v6 port 53 { ::1; };
directory "/var/named/";
dump-file "/var/named/data/cache_dump.db";
statistics-file "/var/named/data/named_stats.txt";
memstatistics-file "/var/named/data/named_mem_stats.txt";
allow-query { 127.0.0.1; your network ipaddr; };
forwarders { Your forward ipaddr; };
recursion yes;

dnssec-enable yes;
dnssec-validation yes;
dnssec-lookaside auto;
