Hello,
please have a look on this:
With the Regex-Entry in "Domains", the dns should not resolve any domain ending with amazonvideo.com
As you can also see, I searched with "amazonvideo" in "domain". There is not whitelist-entry which would override regex-blacklist-entry
What is wrong?
Pi-hole v5.17.3 FTL v5.24 Web Interface v5.21
Thanks.
I just tested it on mine and it blocks ok using (\.|^)amazonvideo\.com$ which looks like your entry.
What is the output of the following from the Pi terminal:
pihole -q -exact amazonvideo.com
Also, please upload a debug log and post just the token URL that is generated after the log is uploaded by running the following command from the Pi-hole host terminal:
pihole -d
or do it through the Web interface:
Tools > Generate Debug Log
That entry is a regex whitelist entry which looks like it was intended to whitelist the domain video.chip.de but which in fact is whitelisting any domain containing the word "video" and any entry ending with the domain chip.de.
Since whitelists have priority over blacklists, this rule is overriding the blacklist entry for amazonvideo.com because this domain contains the word "video".
To fix this, remove that whitelist entry and test again. You can find it by going to your Domains screen and entering chip\.de into the Search box and that will shorten the list a lot so you can pick it out.
Note:
If your intention was to whitelist domains ending with video.de and .chip.de you can change your regex to:
(video|\.chip)\.de$
a very precarious position for me.
It was a mistake in regex I made. Because regex solved my intension, I didnt noticed that regex does more than I expected.
My intension was to whitelist only these 2 Domains:
video.chip.de
chip.de
(video.|^)chip.de$
The regex will also match subdomains of video.chip.de. Try this instead:
^(video\.)?chip\.de$
