Unbound not working when following steps from official guide

5335 is fine.

Finish the guide.
Its below part in pi-hole.conf:

    interface: 127.0.0.1
    port: 5335
    do-ip4: yes
    do-udp: yes
    do-tcp: yes

Tried 5335, same result.
Tried 5300, same result.

Why do you deviate from the guide ?
What results ?

Try restart the daemon and test with dig again:

sudo service unbound restart

user@SERVER:/$ sudo service unbound restart
user@SERVER:/$ sudo dig pi-hole.net @127.0.0.1 -p 5335

The weird thing is that I have the exact same setup on an Rpi and it is working perfectly!

Reboot :smiley:

Same result. Wrong smiley. This is the right one > :roll_eyes:

Yeah thats bummer.
Date/time correct ?

timedatectl

Spot on, 100% correct

Quick question:
Should the settings of PiHole affect unbound in any way?

Maybe bit overkill but you could try stop unbound:

sudo service unbound stop

Start here manually with verbose debug logging:

sudo /usr/sbin/unbound -ddd -vvv -c /etc/unbound/unbound.conf

And see whats logged on screen when do those dig tests.

No.
pihole-FTL only forwards DNS queries to unbound if configured properly.

Post distro etc and maybe someone else knows ?

hostnamectl | tail -3

lsb_release -a

apt policy unbound

Or post issue at unbound package maintainer site or ask unbound support.

Thanks for your effort and help.
