Feedback for "Allow defining clients by their MAC address, host name and networking interface"

So I switched to the branch recommended in this, thread after it was merged back in:

So I followed these steps, and things were working fine for awhile. Was this not the correct course of actions?

Correct, that is what I was told I should do. See my post above.

This is correct. Something else must be broken.

Please add

DEBUG_LOCKS=true
DEBUG_DATABASE=true

to the file /etc/pihole/pihole-FTL.conf (create if it does not exist) and run

pihole restartdns

Next time the crash happens, please check your pihole-FTL.log log file. It may be necessary to upload the entire file (or send it to me via PM or email) in case you don't see anything obvious.

I'll restore back to the dev branch tonight, and report back. I'd do it now, but I fear my wife and kids wouldn't be too happy with me :slight_smile:

I've updated one of my piholes. I'll report back when I have an update.

It just failed out. I tried to run pihole -d, but because dns resolution was down, it failed to do the upload.

There was a crash reported in the log. I'll send you a PM with the details.

@ubenmackin Do you have any news for us?

Looks like the latest pull from the dev branch has fixed this issue. Thanks for the assistance!
