Hi,
i try to update my Raspberry Zero W from 154 to 155.
Updates from 152-154 worked flawless.
Update 155 is signaled.
> dietpi-update = Run now to update DietPi (from V154 to V155).
i can ping from the dietpi (154)
> root@DietPi:~# ping -c 1 [dietpi.com](http://dietpi.com)
> PING [dietpi.com](http://dietpi.com) (185.101.92.145) 56(84) bytes of data.

Hi,
Looks like a DNS issue. Might be due to PiHole service being stopped.
Whats the DNS server setting in dietpi-config \> Networking Options \> Ethernet?

Hi Fourdee, thank you for replying so fast.
this is the setting for
Ethernet Adapter
```nohighlight
No Ethernet Hardware was found. You are most likely │
│ running a Pi Model A.
```
Wifi: Available | Enabled | Connected
```nohighlight
Current Details: │
│ - SSID = NAME | 65 Mbit | Strength: -28 dBm │
│ - KEY = PASSWORD │
│ - Mode = STATIC │
│ - Ip = 192.168.1.30 │
│ - Mask = 255.255.255.0 │
│ - DNS = 127.0.0.1
```
after the update stops ([Failed] Download failed, unable to run update)
i get this feedback in terminal:
```nohighlight
root@DietPi:~# pihole status

root@DietPi:~# pihole restartdns

you need a propper working wifi network configuration, with correct default gatway and working dns server.
Go to dietpi-config \> Networking Options \> Wifi and set it correct for you LAN.

@Fourdee:
This is my last try, before I give up forever …

Hi sofad,
Dir ist aber schon klar, dass die IP: 127.0.0.1/8 ein spezielle IP Adresse ist?
Loclahost, Loopback-Device, localnet, wie auch immer du es nennen willst?
Wenn du per Hand pihole anhälst oder wenn dietpi-update VOR dem Update ALLE laufenden Dienste beendet via dietpi-service und somit auch pihole, hat dein Geräte KEINE funktionierende Namensauflösung (vallid DNS-Server) mehr.
Folglich kann dietpi-update nur fehlschlagen …
Du brauchst unter Wifi Network in dietpi-config, AUCH wenn du pihole installiert hast und besonders dann, eine funktionierende Netzwerk Konfiguration zu Beispiel:
```nohighlight
Static_IP=192.168.1.30
Static_Mask=255.255.255.0
Static_Gateway=192.168.1.1
Static_DNS=192.168.1.1, 8.8.8.8
```
Warum in alle Welt auch immer , dort jeder 127.0.0.1 eintragen will oder eingetragen hat, ist mir vollkommen schleierhaft … 🙄

thank you k-plan
i tried to set static\_dns to
```nohighlight
Static_DNS=192.168.1.1, 8.8.8.8
```
i apply and save changes, restart networking
the static\_dns is still 127.0.0.1
//
after i uninstalled pihole the static\_dns is set to 8.8.8.8 and update is working
reinstalled pihole.
thanks for your help

The only way I could update was by uninstalling pihole, after that it worked without issues.

Hi,
I had the same problem updating from V156 to V157.
I could avoid uninstalling pihole by adding # to the beginning the lines in the dietpi-update script, which stop the services, changing them to comments, so it didn’t stop the services during update.
Every thing works fine so far…
