Updating Gravity fails - hosts-file.net

Please follow the below template, it will help us to help you!

Hello everyone!

Expected Behaviour:

[When running pihole -g I expect all lists to be updated successfully.]

Actual Behaviour:

_[Unfortunately the update constantly fails when trying to update ad_servers.txt from hosts-file.net. What I already tried:

  • Adding hosts-file.net to the whitelist
  • Updating time via time server and the time zone to make sure everything is in sync
  • various changes in the /etc/hosts file
    PiHole is running in a Proxmox container and I used the latest ISO to install PiHole two days ago. There are no additional configurations done at this moment, since I am new into the topic and wanted to make sure that everything is working as expected in a first step.

Unfortunately I am stuck and none of the topics I found here fixed the issue so far. So any help is appreciated.

Thanks a lot!

Thanks a lot for the hint! :man_facepalming:

I don't understand why I didn't take this into consideration. Unfortunately I also didn't find it using the search. Just expected it to be my fault. :man_shrugging:

Again, thanks for the quick answer! This one can be closed I guess.
