Hallo,
I´ve installed Pi-Hole on a Debian 9.5 VM (VMware) and after login to http://pi-hole-ip/admin there is only the loading symbol on the dashboard.
No data at all.
How can I solve this problem?
habe Pi-Hole als VM mit Debian 9.5 installiert und wenn ich http://IP-PI-HOLE/admin aufrufe zeigt er mir keine Daten im Dashboard an.
Nur das Lade-Symbol
Woran kann das liegen?
My Debug token: qnahb9evfz
Gruß

Maybe this could be helpful.
When I do following commands there is still the same problem with the empty dashboard.
sudo systemctl stop pihole-FTL.service
sudo rm -f /etc/pihole/pihole-FTL.db
sudo systemctl start pihole-FTL.service
And when I click on "Query Log" I get this error message
And a click on "Long term data" and then on "Query Log" I get following error message
Whats output for below two ?
pi@noads:~ $ php -i | grep 'PHP Version\|json\|sqlite3'
PHP Version => 7.0.30-0+deb9u1
/etc/php/7.0/cli/conf.d/20-json.ini,
/etc/php/7.0/cli/conf.d/20-sqlite3.ini,
PHP Version => 7.0.30-0+deb9u1
json
json support => enabled
json version => 1.4.0
sqlite3
sqlite3.extension_dir => no value => no value
pi@noads:~ $ php -m | grep 'json\|sqlite3'
json
sqlite3
Might need to install below PHP modules (if PHP version is 7):
sudo apt install php7.0-json php7.0-sqlite3
If still running PHP version 5:
sudo apt install php-json php-sqlite3
Here is the output for
root@pihole:~# php -i | grep 'PHP Version|json|sqlite3'
PHP Version => 7.0.30-0+deb9u1
/etc/php/7.0/cli/conf.d/20-json.ini,
/etc/php/7.0/cli/conf.d/20-sqlite3.ini,
PHP Version => 7.0.30-0+deb9u1
Output for php -m | grep 'json|sqlite3' is empty
Did you enter this command exactly as shown above?
I copy and paste the command
php -m | grep 'json|sqlite3'
Tried it again with: php -m | grep ‘json|sqlite3’
Output: -su: sqlite3’: command not found.
Tested something new
root@pihole:~# echo ">stats" | nc localhost 4711
domains_being_blocked 137144
dns_queries_today 277
ads_blocked_today 66
ads_percentage_today 23.826715

So the Pi-Hole is working. But still no data in the admin panel.
Please wait 24 hours and then check the Dashboard again : In the Release Notes of version 4.0 or 3.3 there was a notice mentioned that you have to wait 24 hours first before any data appears!
In case you already did : My bad! 
You can run both commands without the grep part to see the full output:
php -i
php -m
If with the later one no json or sqlite3 modules are displayed, you probably need to enable the modules first:
pi@noads:~ $ php -m | grep 'json\|sqlite3'
json
sqlite3
pi@noads:~ $ sudo phpdismod json sqlite3
pi@noads:~ $
pi@noads:~ $ php -m | grep 'json\|sqlite3'
pi@noads:~ $
pi@noads:~ $ sudo phpenmod json sqlite3
pi@noads:~ $
pi@noads:~ $ php -m | grep 'json\|sqlite3'
json
sqlite3
When enabling/disabling PHP modules, most times you need to restart or reload the web daemon to apply:
sudo service lighttpd restart
I will try it later
Didn´t help.
Deleted the VM and installed a new Debian 9.5 VM
curl -sSL https://install.pi-hole.net | bash
And this time everything worked fine.
Don´t know what I did different to the first install of my VM.
In my oppinion I did the same like the first time.
