Dnsmasq failed to start

Help
1

Expected Behaviour:

Pi-hole should be running with dnsmasq

Actual Behaviour:

dnsmasq cannot start

Debug Token:

x2ibd5f1x2

In V4.0, 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.

Your debug log shows pihole-FTL running on port 53 and dnsmasq failed; both are normal.
