New Pi Hole installation DNS not working on the device itself but works with clients on the network

Help

Expected Behaviour:

The pi-hole server should be able to resolve using its own IP as the name resolver.

  • Operating System: Debian 13
  • Hardware: Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.1

Actual Behaviour:

The pi-hole server is unable to resolve using its own IP address as the name resolver.

Computers on the network can resolve using the pi-hole server.

But the pi-hole server can't resolve if using it's own IP as the name resolver.

Debug Token:

https://tricorder.pi-hole.net/Xm1TDjCn/

I have looked up serveral similar posts but most of them are already closed and no actual resolution can be found on the thread.

The Pi-Hole Server needs to use 127.0.0.1 as the IP Address and not something like 192.168.1.2 assuming that is the LAN IP Address of your Pi-Hole :slight_smile:
