Another FTL port 53 help request - can it be fixed from gui settings

[furturdo]

i have the error port 53 after a power outage/reboot.

can i get dnsmasq and ftl back up using the web gui?

tried to follow this but getting nowhere

DNSMASQ_CONFIG FTL failed to start due to failed to create listening socket for port 53: Address already in use

Hello I was running my pi-hole for about 2 weeks when I accidentally unplugged the raspberry pi and now I get the error DNSMASQ_CONFIG FTL failed to start due to failed to create listening socket for port 53: Address already in use when I run sudo netstat -tulpn on the pi it says 608/lighttpd TCP is listening to port 53 Expected Behaviour: The pi-hole should start up after a restart and work Actual Behaviour: I get an error of FTL not starting Debug Token: https://tricorder.pi-hole.net/…

debug token is: https://tricorder.pi-hole.net/xfMplmd1/

You have unbound running on port 53. This is preventing pihole-FTL from binding to that port.

[53] is in use by unbound (https://docs.pi-hole.net/main/prerequisites/#ports)

[2022-05-22 15:54:37.843 604M] FATAL ERROR in dnsmasq core: failed to create listening socket for port 53: Address already in use

This is not something you can fix from the web GUI. You will either need to stop unbound or put it on a different port. Our guide for unbound has a configuration file that will put unbound on port 5335 and avoid the port 53 conflict.

You need sudo powers to modify that file.
