Hey everyone, sorry for the bother here, but I’m running into something odd and could use a sanity check.
For months and months, my Pi-hole dashboard showed a much larger set of blocked domains, including the usual “easy win” Smart TV trackers (Samsung, LG, Roku, etc.) along with Facebook, TikTok, and similar social telemetry domains. Everything worked great, and I could clearly see them being blocked in Query Log and Top Blocked Domains.
Recently, however, these domains have started showing up as green/allowed instead of blocked/not-permitted, and I can’t recall what configuration change might have caused this.
Please upload a debug log and post just the token URL that is generated after the log is uploaded by running the following command from the Pi-hole host terminal:
sudo pihole -d
or if you run your Pi-hole as a Docker container:
docker exec -it <pihole-container-name-or-id> pihole -d
where you substitute <pihole-container-name-or-id> as required.
You only have one group (Default group), but this group is disabled (enabled=0 means diasbled):
*** [ DIAGNOSING ]: Groups
id enabled name date_added date_modified description
---- ------- -------------------------------------------------- ------------------- ------------------- --------------------------------------------------
0 0 Default 2025-02-24 11:59:24 2025-03-11 08:46:06
As a result, all lists are disabled too.
Just re-enable the default group and Pi-hole will start to block domains again.
Thank you! I’ve never used that function before and well, now am reading more about it. Not sure how that changed, but thank you!
