Webinterface Error 404

Help
1

Hi there,

just startet a pi-hole on a Raspi 3B+ with dietPi (stretch).

Everything works fine regarding the dns service. It's great to see less malvertising on the various devices in my household.

What's a little bit strange, is that I can't access the webinterface which I expected to find via pi.hole/admin or "IP Adress"/admin. No matter which device (Android or Windows) I never get to see the web interface.

First error was ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED.

Searching on this site brought me to a reinstallation of lighttpd. Now this didn't change much, except that I now receive "404 Errors". When I head now to http://pi.hole I see the welcome page of the lighttpd server package.

I've run the debugger and uploaded the log. Tokencode is mleqr1figv

I'm quiet fond of colourful graphs :slight_smile: Your support would be greatly appreciated.

Try run below one to repair the lighttpd configuration:

pihole -r

Thanks for this hint.

Unfortunately I already tried this but it didn't help.

It appears to me that the installer via dietPi for piHole is maybe broken.

Anyway, I now have access to the web dashboard. What did the trick was:

  1. uninstall pihole & dependencies via dietPi-software
  2. fresh install and configuration via curl -sSL https://install.pi-hole.net | bash

All working now. We can close this topic.

I think DietPi changes the path from /admin to /pihole.
