Domains blocked number decreased/dnsmasq not showing queries

Help

Hello,

after update to latest version:

I had 466 184 addresses in the list, and after updating to the latest version, I only have:198 240 :frowning:

Why or what please?

It appears that many of them were duplicates. We did make some changes to gravity that make it more accurate (there may have been some duff entries in your gravity.list before hand), could you provide a debug token so we can take a closer look?

My token is: l5qslprmpy

Thank you

I actually see the same number of domains using your adlists.list file between the previous version and the newest version of Pi-hole... are you sure you had 466184 before the update?

Thank you, yes
it's how I write. Before 466 184, and after is 198.301

I do not know what the problem is.

I tried doing a downgrade on

cd /etc/.pihole
sudo git checkout v3.2.1
cd /var/www/html/admin
sudo git checkout v3.2.1
pihole -r
pihole checkout ftl v2.13.2

And it did not help.

I don't think this is an issue with 3.3, as I get the same number of domains on 3.2.1.

One thing I did noticed (on both runs) was that two of the lists did not download:

  [i] Target: www.joewein.net (dom-bl-base.txt)
  [✗] Status: Forbidden
  [✗] List download failed: no cached list available

  [i] Target: www.joewein.net (dom-bl-base.txt)
  [✗] Status: Forbidden
  [✗] List download failed: no cached list available

could be that...

edit: Those are both the same list, you have it in your adlists.list file twice :slight_smile:

and now I see it went wrong ..

DNS server runs but does not show anything ..

8

Have you reverted back to 3.3?

Update to the latest version is not possible now.
Do you have instructions on how to do it? pihole -up is not possible

Currently I have: Pi-hole Version vDev (HEAD, v3.2.1-0-ge602008) Web Interface Version vDev (HEAD, v3.2.1-0-g31dddd8) FTL Version vDev (v3.0, v3.0)

10 
cd /etc/.pihole
sudo git checkout master
cd /var/www/html/admin
sudo git checkout master
pihole -r
pihole checkout ftl master

Should get you back where you need to be

A post was merged into an existing topic: Dnsmasq fails on Pi-hole 3.3

It works. I have the current version back.
But with those booted domains it's the same.

466 184 vs 198.301 now :frowning:

I'll probably try to re-install the Stretch version and then reinstall PiHole and reset the settings from PiHole export..

As I mentioned before, The number of domains doesn't look to be an issue with the version of Pi-hole, I've tried it on both the previous and the current versions and I get the same results. May be that the lists have changed.
