Install partial fail on RPI3

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

Expected Behaviour:

I expect installation to work

Actual Behaviour:

Install works, admin works but can't find bc whatever that is. Also dns not turned on, wont turn on, also FTL (whatever that is) off. The ONLY diverion I made in the script, I told it not to install lighthttpd... as I have nginx and PHP 7 already installed on my Rasapberry Pi 3

Debug Token:

hx41l2i8u4

What is in your install log?

cat /etc/pihole/install.log

  [✓] Installing scripts from /etc/.pihole

You should install bc with

sudo apt-get install bc

What is the output of

sudo systemctl status pihole-FTL.service

FTL is the DNS engine. In V4 of Pi-Hole, dnsmasq is embedded in pihole-FTL, and this runs in place of dnsmasq.

now installed bc

Sudo systemctl status pinhole-ftl.service returns "Unit pinhole-FTL.service could not be found" - lastthing the install script says i "Starting pinhole-FTL service"
But I half expected failure as the install earlier says "systemd-resolved is not enabled". No other errors I could see in install.

I just generated a debug log. FTL not running. FTL verion 4.0 - dnsmasq version 340. lighthttpd version opt. php version 7.0.3
Operatinmg system Raspbian stretch
Selinux not detected.

Now it is running, but after reboot dns/ftl not starting automatically - I have to manually start in admin page.

Are you able to upload the debug log and post the token here? If it won't upload, do this:

sudo nano /etc/resolv.conf

Change 127.0.0.1 to 1.1.1.1, save and exit

pihole -d and upload
