Hi guys,
I've been following the following article (and few others) to enable HTTPS on Pi-hole (which I've done in the past successfully) but I struggle... Enabling HTTPS for your Pi-hole Web Interface
Could you please give me some hints on this?
Here is my config of the Lighttpd.conf and external.conf files:
lighttpd.conf
# Pi-hole: A black hole for Internet advertisements
# (c) 2017 Pi-hole, LLC (https://pi-hole.net)
# Network-wide ad blocking via your own hardware.
#
# Lighttpd config for Pi-hole

When I restart the service I get:
2021-12-15 18:43:05: configfile.c.2274) server.upload-dirs doesn't exist: /var/cache/lighttpd/uploads
2021-12-15 18:43:05: plugin.c.195) dlopen() failed for: /usr/lib/lighttpd/mod_openssl.so /usr/lib/lighttpd/mod_openssl.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
2021-12-15 18:43:05: server.c.1238) loading plugins finally failed
I'm running Debian 11 on a Raspberry 2B here.
I can generate the debug logs for Pihole if it's useful.
Thanks!
