DNS will not start, dashboard filled with spinning circles

Tried on my rpi, tried on my tinkerboard, tried with docker, tried with manual install. Just spinning circles and no DNS service running : (

https://tricorder.pi-hole.net/fqhxtiwygv

Are there any errors in /var/log/pihole-FTL.log?

Reinstalled again and for some reason things seem to load and DNS shows enabled, but the dashboard is all loading circles still... new debug:

No obvious errors in pihole-FTL.log >

If the dashboard is still showing spinning circles, clear your browser cache or try another browser.
