Updating Pi-hole to version 6 broke admin console

Help
1

Hello guys I ran into a little trouble and wondering if someone can provide some assistance if possible.

I just ran a pihole -up as I normally do every few months and it upgraded me to version 6 which has caused me to get a 404 error when attempting to access the admin console.

DNS is currently working and I can enable / disable pihole through CLI.
Pihole is also serving DHCP in my environment, not sure if that' still working or if devices will be renewing their leases. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

I ran a pihole -d and uploaded and this can be found here:

Your upgrade attempt was not completed and as a result your installation has a mix of Pi-hole v6 and v5.

FTL is still on v5:

*** [ DIAGNOSING ]: FTL version
[✓] Version: v5.25.2
[i] Branch: master
[i] Commit: 8943e260

Also, you have lighttpd using port 80.

Let's try to fix your installation:

  • Pi-hole v6 doesn't use lighttpd anymore.
    If you don't need it for other services, you can disabled it running:

    sudo systemctl stop lighttpd.service
sudo systemctl disable lighttpd.service

  • Now try to repair the installation running pihole -r, but as you are running an unsupported OS ("Raspbian 10"), you will need to use this command:

    sudo PIHOLE_SKIP_OS_CHECK=true pihole -r

This worked, thank you so much. Really appreciate it.
