It says that the dns service was restarted, but if I check it afterwards with pihole status it says
Debug Token:
pzirt9s19i!
Summary
I know there have been a lot of topics with a similar problem, but none of them helped me fixing mine. I made a fresh install of Pi-Hole on a Debian 8 machine. I tried reinstalling multiple times. I tried repair too.
The output of
sudo systemctl status dnsmasq
is
dsnmasq.service
Loaded: not-found (Reason: No such file or directory)
Active: inactive (dead)
I don't know why. If i try
apt-get install dnsmasq
It says that the newest version is installed...
Another Problem is that in the installer and the repair bash I get this kind of warning:
/opt/pihole/updatecheck.sh: line 75: /usr/bin/pihole-FTL: Operation not permitted
/opt/pihole/updatecheck.sh: line 88: /usr/bin/pihole-FTL: Operation not permitted
And in other lines too.
The Output of
systemctl status pihole-FTL
is

In Pi-Hole V4.0 and later, dnsmasq is embedded in pihole-FTL, and dnsmasq no longer runs as a separate process. The debug log will show dnsmasq as either failed or inactive. Process pihole-FTL should be shown running on port 53.
Has Pi-Hole previously worked with this installation, or has it never worked?
To check for processes running on ports used by Pi-Hole, run this command and post the output.

Btw I rechecked the dnsmasq service and I got another output than before, because of a typo.
