Pi-hole not displaying adlists, domains etc when accessed through nginx-proxy-manager

[receens2k]

Hey folks,

just recently checked, that my Pi-hole is acting strange when accessed through my dedicated url. All smooth, when I accessing through Pi-holes IP-address. Basically it is working, but the webfrontend does not display Groups, Clients, Domains, Adlists, Diagnosis and throws errors as well (sometimes). See attached screenshots.

Does anybody have a clue?

Cheers, Marc

I'm not sure how you configured your custom domain and your reverse proxy, but there are many CORS errors in lighttpd log.

Execute this command inside your container to see the messages:

tail /var/log/lighttpd/error-pihole.log

You are also running an older image (probably unrelated):

*** [ DIAGNOSING ]: Operating system
[i] Pi-hole Docker Container: 2024.03.2

Hi,

I will check the errorfile later.

I an running pihole-unbound in an all-in-one-docker which uses this pihole docker version.

Good morning,

I think the errors came from a try of myself to fix that by updating Docker-Variable domainname to the public domain name of my Pi-hole, which was wrong. I was trying to edit lighttpd's external.conf, but:

right before I've noticed, that VIRTUAL_HOST was not set to my external url in my docker-compose. By doing this, the CORS-errors are gone and the access through external url is now working fine.

Thanks a lot for your hint, which made me find the solution.
