Help

Expected Behaviour:

New install of Pi-hole on Kubuntu 20.04. Only item installed before hand was Synergy, Attempting to access Pihole web interface.
Kubuntu 20.04
Asus R103b notebook

Actual Behaviour:

Debug Token:

While i've played around with kubuntu in the past thanks to my dad, i'm still very new to using konsole level commands. I understand there is an issue with the lighttpd install with Pihole due to some update that lighttpd implimented, but i'm not sure how to resolve this issue.
