Pihole not working since last update

I just updated to the new version but it is not working.
Needs help.

seeing a couple things from your error log

*** [ DIAGNOSING ]: Pi-hole processes
[✗] lighttpd daemon is inactive
[✗] pihole-FTL daemon is inactive

this points to your base image missing critical commands and could explain why your system does not function as expected

An often overseen but highly recomended option is pihole -r instead of poking around in all kind of settings.
When given the choice choos Reconfigure.

Your debug log shows you're running a 172.17.0.0/16 network.
That is the same as Docker's default bridge network.

If you are indeed running a dockered Pi-hole, you should never run pihole -r nor should you update via pihole -up.

Please refer to Pi-hole's Docker documentation on Upgrading / Reconfiguring.

I have tried that. When I run pihole -r from the cli in docker I get, "error: neither IPv4 or IPv6 selected."

When I originally setup the pihole I followed these instructions

For some reason I thought it would be a good idea to update docker and pihole to the latest release.
Pihole dashboard is reachable from the loopback address and I can ping the dns sever internally but I cannot connect to the outside.

That command does not work in Docker.

Read the upgrading section for our official instructions:

Edit: Are you running this on WIndows 10 Docker Desktop?

Yes this is Docker for Windows 10 and I have it set to use window containers, not linux containers.
The instructions you linked me is how I setup pihole in the past. In my attempt to update docker and pihole to the latest version/FTL, I must have screwed something up. I tried to uninstall/reinstall docker docker but that didn't help. If I try to pull a new pihole this is what I get.

We don't make a Windows/amd64 image.
