Can't access Admin Panel

Expected Behavior:

The admin panel loads

Actual Behavior:

The admin panel doesn't load, getting err_connection_refused (also can't ssh, but that doesn't matter much to me)
Also, trying to access the admin panel through http://pi.hole just gives err_name_not_resolved

Your debug log shows a lot of stops and starts for Pi-hole's web server lighttpd:

Let's check your lighttpd.
What's the ouput of:

sudo systemctl status --full --no-pager lighttpd.service

ok idk whats going on, but I went to bed and it started working again once I got up

here's the output though, it's the same as when it wasn't working
