Having a similar problem as another poster. I can ping and get a valid response, but can't open the admin console in a browser.
Token is: sxseq8r4mw
Thanks.
What exactly do you get when you try to open it? A 404 error?
Admin interface should be available under http://pi.hole/admin
What's the output of sudo service lighttpd status
If I try the real IP address I get:
This site can’t be reached
192.168.1.186 refused to connect.
Try:
Checking the connection
Checking the proxy and the firewall
ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED
I get the messages as attached. Thanks.
Your lighttp is not starting and that's why you can't access the admin interface.
Do you have apache running on it too ?
Try running a pihole -r and repair
I tried that - and no I don't have Apache installed.
I get the same message as before.
Have you tried re-installing pi-hole from 0 ?
If you go that route, after you remove pi-hole, also remove lighttpd (if you are not using it for something else, and are ok with it).
sudo apt remove lighttpd
After that, install pi-hole the normal way, it will look for lighttpd and install it with default settings.
Sorry - how to uninstall dietpi? Thanks.
Sorry - pi-hole
pihole uninstall (do not remove any dependency when prompted).
And then sudo apt remove lighttpd
And lastly curl -sSL https://install.pi-hole.net | bash
