I tried PIHOLE DHCP service once. Didn't get it to work. No IP has been assigned.
Can you tell me what I need to set to get PHOLE DHCP to run?
What is the output of:
cat /etc/pihole/pihole-FTL.conf
Let's fix the first problem first.
SOCKET_LISTENING=all
QUERY_DISPLAY=yes
AAAA_QUERY_ANALYSIS=yes
RESOLVE_IPV6=no
RESOLVE_IPV4=yes

MAXLOGAGE=24
FTLPORT=4711

And the output of the following please:

127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.1.1 DietPi
127.0.0.1 pi.hole
192.168.178.22 DietPi
192.168.178.22 pi.hole
maybee it will help...
nslookup pi-hole.net

Non-authoritative answer:

** server can't find pi-hole.net: REFUSED
oh, my mistake, 192.168.178.22 is correct.
what is the full output of the following commands from the terminal on the Pi-Hole platform?

i typed it in Mate-Terminal. Where is Pihole Terminal?
Pi-Hole doesn't have a terminal. I was referring to whatever command line terminal you had on the Pi-Hole host platform.
Did you run pihole -r ? If not, please run this, select reconfigure and report results.

What did this test consist of? A DNS lookup from a client, a DNS lookup from the Pi-Hole platform terminal?
Has this installation of Pi-Hole ever worked for you? Or, did it fail after an update or after changing a parameter or router settings?
New Reconfigure (Install) worked with no errors but
I still can't visit websites if 127. 0. 0. 1 is set in resolv. conf. Then my Internet won't work anymore.
