Maybe it is a permission issue... I really don't know.

Try to nuke the web repo and clone it again:

```auto
sudo rm -rf /var/www/html/admin
sudo git clone https://github.com/pi-hole/web.git /var/www/html/admin

```

After that, run `pihole -r` again, just to make sure everything is correct.

Does that fix the issue?
