So, on April this year I posted here on Consolidating blocklists failing about Pi-Hole getting stuck at 'consolidating list'. I was on DietPi and had installed Pi-Hole through DietPi. I uninstalled Pi-Hole from DietPi and installed it via your own install script ( curl -sSL https://install.pi-hole.net | bash
). Things started working again, hurray!!
But, last week I noticed ads started coming up a bit on my network and on Pi-Hole's admin panel I saw Domains on Blocklist was 0. It was still serving requests, but domains on blocklist was a t 0. I did pihole -g to update gravity and I always got stuck on 'Extracting domains from blocklists...'.
I tried pi-hole -r , everything went smoothly until 'Extracting domains from blocklists...'. I than flashed the SD card with raspbian, install was a success, I than installed pihole through your install script and I got stuck at:
[âś“] Consolidating blocklists
[i] Extracting domains from blocklists...packet_write_wait: Connection to 192.168.1.XX port 22: Broken pipe
I can boot into raspbian, but ping any domain won't work.
ping google.com
ping: google.com: Temporary failure in name resolution
Pinging an IP on my LAN works, pinging 1.1.1.1 works. DNS doesn't, your install script doesn't do anything because DNS is broken on this raspberrypi. I than tried pihole -r , it doesn't do anything. No pihole command works, as if pihole wasn't even installed... I can't generate a token because any pihole command doesn't work. Although at /etc/pihole has:
ls /etc/pihole/
adlists.list list.4.s3.amazonaws.com.domains
dhcp.leases list.5.s3.amazonaws.com.domains
dns-servers.conf logrotate
install.log macvendor.db
list.0.raw.githubusercontent.com.domains pihole-FTL.conf
list.1.mirror1.malwaredomains.com.domains pihole-FTL.db
list.2.sysctl.org.domains regex.list
list.3.zeustracker.abuse.ch.domains setupVars.conf
My original install had 600k domains blocklisted. I have another Pihole running inside FreeNAS VM working well, but this install was on a raspberrypi 3 as main PiHole on my network.
So, I'm thinking maybe my SD card has an issue since this is happening even after switching OS,.. (although the OS itself installed well). But before I go and buy a new one SD card, any advice or any ideas?
