Web interface not working

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

Expected Behaviour:

My pi’s ip address loads the web interface

Actual Behaviour:

I get a blank screen

Debug Token:

tricorder.pi-hole.net/osyx8ma960

Your debug log shows that lighttpd (the admin GUI web server) is not running. Since there is no lighttpd log, we can't look there for errors:

*** [ DIAGNOSING ]: Pi-hole processes
[✗] lighttpd daemon is inactive

*** [ DIAGNOSING ]: Dashboard and block page
[✗] Block page X-Header: X-Header does not match or could not be retrieved.

[✗] Web interface X-Header: X-Header does not match or could not be retrieved.

*** [ DIAGNOSING ]: contents of /var/log/lighttpd
/var/log/lighttpd does not exist.

Let's take a look at other records and see what's running on the ports used by Pi-Hole. What is the output of the following commands from the Pi terminal:

sudo systemctl status --full --no-pager lighttpd

sudo netstat -nltup | grep 'Proto\|:53 \|:5053 \|:5353 \|:8953 \|:67 \|:80 \|:471'

#1
Unit lighttpd.service could not be found
#2

Also, quick question. Does pi-hole affect VNC server from real VNC?

No.

For the lighttpd problem, run pihole -r , select reconfigure, and when prompted install the web server.

This will recreate the repository:

cd /
sudo rm -rf /etc/.pihole
sudo git clone https://github.com/pi-hole/pi-hole /etc/.pihole

But when I type my pi’s is address it still shows a blank screen.

The next step is to repeat the reconfigure and see if the error has cleared and if the reconfigure will complete.

Just realized the whole time I went to 192.168.0.32, not 192.168.0.32/admin. So sorry.:sweat_smile::joy:

Also it is not updating

Please generate a new debug log and post the token here.

You are updated to the latest version and it looks like your lighttpd problem is also resolved.

That’s weird. It just said there was a new version available.

Thanks for your help. Now I have to fix my pi’s audio problem and it’s vnc problem.
