Hi.

Does this have a resolution currently? I’m hoping somebody will say yes and I’ve just missed it :slight_smile:

189

is it possible to bring pi-hole with latest ftldns? Or you wait that exits the beta?

190

FTLDNS is currently in beta. While the new features are great, the add-on focusses on stability. Therefore, I’m not going to release the add-on with beta software.

Hi, I just added Pi-Hole to my existing HAssio instal; and sadly i am unable to get this to work…
been trying for past few hrs…
Can someone please tell me if this is a known issue? What could i do differently?

dnsmasq: failed to create listening socket for port 53: Address in use

works with port 54, but not 53

  • Pi-Hole 1.1.1
  • Hassio image: Resin OS 2.3.0+rev1 running on RaspPi
  • DuckDNS & LetsEncypt is added/installed
  • dnsmasq add-on is NOT installed. No other DNS app is installed

resin network settings:

[ipv4]
address1=192.168.0.20,192.168.0.1
dns=8.8.8.8
dns-search=
method=manual

[ipv6]
addr-gen-mode=stable-privacy
dns-search=
method=auto

Pi-Hole add-on Settings:

{
“log_level”: “info”,
“password”: “”,
“update_lists_on_start”: true,
“http_port”: 80,
“https_port”: 443,

Since you’ve seem to excluded everything, the only thing I can think of is the Hass.io host version.

The latest (and last) version is 1.3, the version before that (1.2) had an issue causing the same error. Make sure you are running the latest host version.

193

Hi, Thanks for replying.
where do you find the host version?

This is what i see from the Hass.io tab on left side of screen:

That is a good question!

It used to be in the spot your are looking at right now, nevertheless, it seems to be removed (I guess it is caused by the preparations for HassOS).

I will ask around, see if I can get a question. Feel free to join the Discord chat and ask yourself as well :wink:

195

sounds like 0.68.1 upgrade has updated the underlying Resin OS from v1.3 to v2.3.
And v2.3 likely includes dnsmasq (to support the NetworkManager).

I hope someone can find a workaround…

btw, has anyone been successful with setting a different port for DNS (54, for example) in the router settings (perhaps using port trigger or port fwd)?

196

I think

hassio ha version

In console

That seems incorrect. Are you running a Generic Linux / manual installation? If that is the case, you’d really need to update your system and run the Hass.io installation again.

201

Run the following lines on your system and reboot.

apt-get update
apt-get install -y apparmor-utils apt-transport-https avahi-daemon ca-certificates curl dbus jq network-manager socat software-properties-common
curl -sL "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/home-assistant/hassio-build/master/install/hassio_install" | bash -s

Running a Generic Linux system is awesome, but it requires you to keep things working on the Host system yourself. Please keep that in mind.

Hello,
Re:
[✗] Status: Connection Refused
[✗] List download failed: no cached list available
etc

Confirming the same problem in Pi-hole 1.2.0 from a fresh install, and that giving the Hass.io install a static address fixes it.

203

I’m on hassio everything works fine, except for the sensors, they’re disappeard, someone with the same problem?

Did you update Hassio?

There’s some breaking changes

Breaking Changes
The pi_hole sensor is now limited to ads_blocked_today by default and will no longer show all available data. Use monitored_conditions to list the sensors you want. (@fabaff - #15014) (sensor.pi_hole docs) (breaking change)

205

Yes I’m on 0.73 , get the sensors working sometimos, dont know what could it be

206

Anyone have issues with the whitelist not working? I’ve added analytics.google.com to it and I still get the website blocked page when I try to access it.

I’ve added other sites to it and they still get blocked in the query log.

I’m on 1.2.0 and hassio 0.72.
