Apparently you set the port to 8080, but pihole -q is trying to access the API using port 80.

Are you able to access the web interface using port 8080?
What is the output of pihole-FTL --config webserver.port ?

$pihole-FTL --config webserver.port
80,[::]:80,443s,[::]:443s

When I go to >Tools >Search Lists
entered the domain to check
hit Search partial match
This kills pi-hole dns
I had to start it again using pihole restartdns

update:
Search Lists from web is fixed in the last update
