This relates to our legacy hosting plans only
The reason you are getting this error is the domain you are trying to add is in another Blacknight account for web\dns\email hosting .
In order for the domain to be able to be added to your account for web\dns\email hosting you need to remove the domain from hosting or dns section of the control panel it is currently in. This will allow you to add it to your hosting account.
Please see the following on moving a domains hosting between accounts

I'm confused by this...
I have one account only with any hosting/domain reg service and that's with Blacknight. I registered a domain name and bought hosting on the same day, same account, last week. I am now trying to link the two so the domain is hosted by the minimus hosting I bought. I'm having the same problem as the title here - "domain with such name already exists error".
I'm not sure what is meant by removing the domain from the 'all domains' section as I can't find such a section. What I can see is "Registered Domains" and "Hosted Domains". Reg Domains includes the domain I registered and when I go into it it doesn't seem to have an option to remove it from this section (also, I'm afraid that if I do anything such as remove to it that it will somehow be lost / destroyed).
Can you walk through this with me? Sorry, I'm new with this and trying to get my head around it.
Thanks.
I've followed these steps but when I try to add the domain to the hosting account I get this error message :
"Domain name 'name-of-the-domain.ie' is reserved by domain part of existing service user."
How can I fix this?
