The issue I am facing:
im not sure what the exact issue is but im attempting to set up nginx with my pihole. it seems i need multiple files such as /var/run/pihole-FTL.sock
Details about my system:
just a regular raspberry pi 4 with 4gb ram
What I have changed since installing Pi-hole:
just did a fresh install
help would greatly be appreciated im currently trying to get into stuff like this and im extremely lost on this i will provide any needed info as quickly as i can
Why do you want to run a full webserver like nginx?
Pi-hole comes with its own embedded webserver (based on civetweb), so setting up a separate webserver is not required.
i have a couple of other things running on it aswell like jellyfin, so i want to swap the webserver to nginx. and i want to set up a reverse proxy. my understanding of this may not be firm so sorry for any misunderstandings
You can't.
Pi-hole v6 pages need the new web server.
nginx won't be able to execute some of the functions used by the new web interface.
ok thank you for the clarification and especially the fast response time. can i still have the pihole behind the reverse proxy or is this just not doable
also does pihole still use lighttpd?
No.
Pi-hole v6 uses itself (the web server is embedded into pihole-FTL).
Yes.
Search for nginx reverse proxy v6. These are some examples:
