Pi-hole 2.6 – making things (slightly) easier!

Pi-hole 2.6 – making things (slightly) easier!

This one’s been a little while coming.. sorry!

The Changelog can be found here

A notable change in this release is the handling of pihole’s commands.
Rather than each script being stored in /usr/local/bin there is now a controller script simply called pihole, details on the usage of this command can be found here.

As usual, update by re-running the install script curl -L install.pi-hole.net | bash
(or if you don’t feel comfortable piping scripts to bash, you can review and download the install script on the github page here)

Let us know if you run into any issues, we’re always here to help!

      It looks like a problem with apt-get or your connection to download updates. Have you tried it with an installation of Raspbian? That is the probably best OS to install it on.

        I have installed Pi-Hole on the version of Raspbian, that gets installed by Noobs 1.8 – this has worked every time for me – but every time I installed Pi-Hole on Raspbian, installed by Noobs 1.9, the Php5 stuff failed

        As to my “connection to download updates” – Externally, I’m on 200Mbps Cable (Virginmedia), Internally, everything’s Gigabit on Cat6

        I will try a Pi-Hole install on a vanilla Raspbian …

        *UPDATE* I installed Raspbian 2016-03-18 to another sd (64Gig) card, but when I did the Pi-Hole Install, I got the same errors – unfortunately, I was running it on the real console, not from windows/via ssh, so the logs don’t show the errors

        I will run the apt-get cache fixup suggested by https://github.com/PromoFaux, and wait & see what happens in the next release of Raspbian

    Was gravity.sh moved? The previous command doesn’t seem to work in SSH

    The link is still an empty page for the “details on how to usage of the commands” link. Trying to find the command usage so that I can automate some of the daily actions.
