FTL & DNS down!

Please follow the below template, it will help us to help you!

Expected Behaviour:

operational FTL and DNS server.

Actual Behaviour:

both are offline, repairing pihole doesn't fix it.

Debug Token:

Edited by moderator to remove link - debug log made private for review.

You have some configuration errors - from your debug log, pihole-FTL is listening on IP 10.8.0.1 port 53, but Pi-Hole is running on IP 192.168.1.74.

Additionally, although not likely related to the problem, you have multiple IP's assigned to the eth0 interface on the Pi, only one of which is used by Pi-Hole.

*** [ DIAGNOSING ]: Networking
[✓] IPv4 address(es) bound to the eth0 interface:
   192.168.1.79/24 does not match the IP found in /etc/pihole/setupVars.conf (https://discourse.pi-hole.net/t/use-ipv6-ula-addresses-for-pi-hole/2127)
   192.168.1.78/24 matches the IP found in /etc/pihole/setupVars.conf

[10.8.0.1:53] is in use by pihole-FTL

*** [ DIAGNOSING ]: Setup variables
   ...
    PIHOLE_INTERFACE=eth0
    IPV4_ADDRESS=192.168.1.78/24

Let's confirm that the debug log is showing the problem completely. What is the output of these commands from the Pi terminal:

sudo service pihole-FTL status

sudo netstat -nltup | grep 'Proto\|:53 \|:5053 \|:5353 \|:8953 \|:67 \|:80 \|:471'

Thank you for your reply ! actually

this is the problem ! once i assigned it the appropriate static IP from my router and rebooted both the PI and the router, everything is back online ! i have also removed the 2nd IP assigned to it.

but i have ran the two commands as you requested incase there's any other issues am not aware of
