Hey so I just upgraded my pihole to 3.0 and during the installation, I got an error regarding the web UI. after a few minutes of google search, I found out that the solution was to do
```nohighlight
git clone https://github.com/pi-hole/adminLTE.git /var/www/html/admin
```
After doing the line above and repairing the installation, I can only access the pihole dashboard through IP.ADDRESS/admin now instead of IP.ADDRESS/pihole which I really liked.
How can I change it back to /pihole?
Thanks!

Hi,
DietPi generates this symlink, we like it too š

# - Create a symlink so users can use http://ip/pihole
ln -sf /var/www/html/admin /var/www/pihole

How did you update PiHole? pihole -up?
```

Strange, does it say āBlocked by PiHoleā?
Lets check status of /var/www
```plaintext
ls -lha /var/www
ls -lha /var/www/html
```

Well thats bizarre, PiHole is blocking our symlink lol.
I couldnāt replicate this on a fresh installation today. So it must be an issue with the blocked sites list, do you have any custom entries?

Yes, my adlist contains some of wally3kās collection of domains [https://wally3k.github.io/](https://wally3k.github.io/). All of which worked properly before the upgrade.
I went ahead and backed-up my current list and copied the default one from pi-holeās github repo [https://github.com/pi-hole/pi-hole/blob/master/adlists.default](https://github.com/pi-hole/pi-hole/blob/master/adlists.default) and ran
```plaintext
pihole -g
```
Sadly thereās no difference with the result
UPDATE:
Tried to reinstall Pi-Hole. After the installation process, IP.ADDRESS/pihole just displays a blank page while IP.ADDRESS/admin shows the admin UI

Ok, sounds like the pihole symlink is missing, lets try and recreate it again:
```plaintext
rm -R /var/www/pihole
ln -sf /var/www/html/admin /var/www/pihole
```
Did you use DietPi-Software to uninstall, then install PiHole again?

I think your lighttpd.conf has been overwritten during the PiHole update.
Assuming you are using the default Lighttpd webserver on DietPi:
Did you backup your lighttpd.conf before upgrading pihole, as per Updating PiHole::
[https://dietpi.com/forum/t/dietpi-survey-information/32/1](https://dietpi.com/forum/t/dietpi-survey-information/32/1)
If not, reinstall lighttpd to regenerate the config should fix this:
```nohighlight
apt-get purge lighttpd -y
dietpi-software reinstall 84
```

Restoring the lighttpd.conf from a previous backup did the trick! Thank you!
Just wondering, I can still access the admin UI via the /admin address. Is that normal?
