Help with port 53?

I just installed pihole and it was working perfect. I then installed open medial vault and it is coming back with

"FTL failed to start due to failed to create listening socket for port 53: Address already in use"

also error
"There was a problem applying your settings.
Debugging information:
PHP error (2): fsockopen(): unable to connect to 127.0.0.1:4711 (Connection refused) in /var/www/html/admin/scripts/pi-hole/php/FTL.php:47"

I've looked up all I can to fix this but I'm very green with linux and systems. I really just copy and paste most commands to set up things on my RBP. I wish I knew more how to config/setup/understand all the behind the scenes stuff but it's more than overwhelming to try and learn :frowning:

Thanks in advance. Sorry for the word/copy-paste soup

wouldn't let me upload my debug log ("Error message: curl: (6) Could not resolve host: tricorder.pi-hole.net [✗] There was an error uploading your debug log.", this is the best I've got:

This will temporarily reset the nameserver on the Pi to bypass Pi-Hole DNS.

sudo nano /etc/resolv.conf

Edit the nameserver line to nameserver 9.9.9.9 or your preferred third party DNS service, save and exit

Run

pihole -d

and upload the debug log.
