Pihole took over allsky web interface

[Rapid1981]

Hello!
Recently I installed pihole next to your allsky on my raspberry pi and it took over the WebUI's place in the webserver.
I moved the pihole to a container, but it still occupies the WebUI's place and I don't know how to fix it.
Last time reinstalling allsky was solved the problem, but now it didn't help.

Can you help me what to do to bring back the WebUI?
The pihole can be reached with allsky.local/admin.

Thank you!

Can you ask the Pi-hole team how to completely uninstall it, especially the web server portion?

I assume it's using Apache or some other web server ( Allsky uses lighttpd).

[Rapid1981]

They used lighttpd before, but now they are using something called REST API.

These are the paths they use:
webroot: /var/www/html
webhome: /admin/

[Rapid1981]

I found the lighttpd.conf in /etc/lighttpd/ and I loaded it, started lighttpd with it and now I have a WebUI.
Pi-hole is running on https://allsky.local/admin/ and the allsky WebUI is on http://allsky.local

Interesting. Running Allsky's install.sh should have fixed it. It does the same thing you did manually.

Last time reinstalling allsky was solved the problem, but now it didn't help.

Would you please attach ~/allsky/config/logs/install.log so I can figure out why it wasn't fixed?

[Rapid1981]

Here's the install.log.
I hope it helps.

install.log

In the /var/log/lighttpd/error.log this is the only line:
2025-04-27 20:57:03: (server.c.2078) server stopped by UID = 0 PID = 1

[Rapid1981]

After reboot, the lighttpd won't start on it's own.
I enabled the service with sudo systemctl enable lighttpd and now it's working fine.

[EricClaeys]

Makes sense. When Pihole was installed it probably disable lighttpd.
