Cannot finish pi-hole installation after partial install

Help
1

I tried using the quick installer curl -sSL https://install.pi-hole.net | bash
but it ran into an error most of the way through installation

I tried to re-run the quick installer and also tried to update and this happened:

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ curl -sSL https://install.pi-hole.net | bash
curl: (6) Could not resolve host: raw.githubusercontent.com
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo apt-get update
Err:1 http://raspbian.raspberrypi.org/raspbian buster InRelease

Err:2 http://archive.raspberrypi.org/debian buster InRelease

I tried following this post:

but that didn't seem to work

You reset the nameserver in /etc/resolv.conf on the Pi from 127.0.0.1 to another DNS, and were still unable to run the apt commands?

Tried that, ended up with this message:

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ /etc/resolv.conf
-bash: /etc/resolv.conf: Permission denied

I'm not quite sure what you were doing. If you just type in the file name as you did, that is the expected output.

To edit the file, use sudo nano /etc/resolv.conf

To list the contents of the file, use cat /etc/resolv.conf

Editing the nameserver away from the default and reinstalling did the trick. Thanks!
