## Actual Behaviour:

I ran` pihole -up` on my pi4 which also hosts piVPN (which is still running fine). Now the web interface of pinhole is no longer reachable with http://ip\_adress/admin/index.php

web interface access now works with https and not with http anymore.

```auto
[✓] tcp:[::]:8080 is in use by pihole-FTL

```

For whatever reason, it was unable to bind to port 80 on startup (some other service using this port, perhaps?)

You can still access the web interface with plain http - either using port 8080 (`http://your.ip.address:8080/admin` / `http://pi.hole:8080/admin`) or you can change the port that `pihole-FTL` has bound to in the config file `/etc/pihole/pihole.toml`
