please run lsof -l :80 and provide the output ...it should only show lighttpd
do you have anything else running on this system or just pi-hole ?
Nothing else running.
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ lsof -l :80

are you running the pihole over wifi if so you need to run pihoile -r and select reconfigure telling it to use the wlan0 interface. your eth0 interface does nbot have a IP associated with it which might explain what is going on here
Running reconfigure now with switch to wlan0. When it's done, anything specific I should test/check?
Update: completed the reconfigure. No access to the console. Can't open any other pages either atm.
Noticed this error in the reconfigure:
[✗] Downloading and Installing FTL
Error: Unable to get latest release location from GitHub
[✗] FTL Engine not installed
sudo nano /etc/resolv.conf change 127.0.0.1 to 8.8.8.8 the re do the reconfigure
Same error as previous. No change in status.
also make sure that the IP address your wlan interface has is what you have set as DNS in your router
resolv.conf changes weren't saved. Trying again...
the resolv.conf changes will be reverted by the reconfigure command we only changed them the first time to get around resolution errors during the install script
Don't think I saved the resolv.conf properly the first time, so re-running just to be sure. Where can I confirm the wlan interface IP?
from ip a in a previous step
Same error re: FTL binary. Also:

That worked - why is it stuck on .100 instead of .253 as I set it in the config?
because the wlan0 inerface has that IP and your eth0 interface has no IP associated with it. If you change your DNS in the router to 192.168.1.100 everything should work as expected

Indeed it does work. However, is it OK to use that IP for the DNS?
yes just make sure you set a static reservation in your router so it always gets that address
This look OK?
