Unbound won't install

I have tried several times, on different RPis to install Unbound with PiHole, but always get an error during the install.

Currently, I’m doing a fresh install of DietPi, PiHole and Unbound, but I am once again having an error during the Unbound install.

I’m not smart enough to figure this out. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!
RPI 4 with 4gb, booting from SSD. Wired network

Hi,

first of all sorry have this issue. Actual we have some challenges around installation procedure to get PiHole setup together with Unbound. This will be finally fixed on next update as we will introduce quite some enhancement.

atm you would have 2 options. Wait for the update or we are trying to fix your installation :slight_smile:

That’s actually good to hear! I was really wondering how I kept messing it up! :smiley:

I am lazy, so I will wait.
What’s the ETA on the fix?

fix is already done and in development branch https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/4022

I expect beta phase in Feb or early May.

Not sure if this will help…found this a while back

This guy walks you thru the setup of the unbound w/ pihole and gives example of scripts needed to get them to work together

on my install I too got the error (however it is installed)…since pihole is on #53 it crashes out unbound

Once you install that script/config
https://docs.pi-hole.net/guides/dns/unbound/#configure-unbound

then restart and then point pihole to 127.0.0.1#5335

it works just fine

no need to follow external YouTube video or PiHole instructions. All this will be corrected on next update.
