Pi-Hole running on docker container has no /etc/lighttpd directory nor the service is running but can reach webUI

Help docker

Hi Guys,

I was trying to do this: Enabling HTTPS for your Pi-hole Web Interface
to enable SSL/TLS on my web ui of pi-hole but I am stuck at the part when I have to edit my lighttpd config file as there is no such thing.

I cannot see nginx nor lighttpd service running although my web interface is accessible just fine.

What could be the issue?

Thanks

If you'd like to set up TLS on a docker container you will need to use a reverse proxy. The docker images are not set up for modification and any changes you made to the running container would be lost when you restarted the container or updated to a new image.

This is how docker works in general.

I see. How should I set up a reverse proxy for this case?
I am not a docker pro as you can tell but I just thought for what I use it for its a fun project.

You'd need to do a search on the web for guides on setting up a reverse proxy or a TLS provider. I don't have any guides to help you out on that. That's more of a docker issue and not something specific to Pi-hole.
