Hi all,
I can't seem to access the admin page anymore. It worked at the start, but I started trying some DNS settings on the router (which have now been reverted) and it doesn't work anymore..
Expected Behaviour:
Access to the admin webpage via 192.168.2.101/admin (static DHCP). This worked when first installed.
Actual Behaviour:
Connection is refused: ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED. Debug log shows that:
[✗] lighttpd daemon is failed
I tried the solution is this post: Lighttpd daemon won't start
by changing server.port = 80
to server.port = 8888
in /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf
.
And adding server.port := 8888
in /etc/lighttpd/external.conf
. But to no avail.
I tried repairing and reconfiguring using pihole -r
.
Output from sudo systemctl status lighttpd -l
:

I'm quite a noob with terminal-based IT, so I basically tried the solutions I could find at this site. Hope someone can help
