I just upgraded today and I had issues with 2 files being owned by root:root causing pihole-FTL.service to fail after a few seconds:
/run/log/pihole-FTL/pihole-FTL.log
/etc/pihole/pihole-FTL.db
just chown the 2 to pihole:pihole
note: This was about 2 months since I last updated(kernel 5.5.5), so may be related
I believe this now requires libidn in the depends array.
I was getting "CMake Error: The following variables are used in this project, but they are set to NOTFOUND. Please set them or make sure they are set and tested correctly in the CMake files: IDN" before adding libidn to the depends array.
@graysky O_o
@max.bra - Yes. Interestingly, after a reboot, it is working :/
@graysky is http user in pihole group?
@max.bra - Not sure if this is a bug w/ pi-hole-server or this package, but when I attempt to apply a particular whitelist entry to a group, I get an error:
"Error, something went wrong! While executing: attempt to write a readonly database"
Yet, the owner of /etc/pihole/ is `pihole:pihole' and all files there in are as well. I do not see any issue with my databases either:
% ls -lh /etc/pihole/*.db
-rw-rw-r-- 1 pihole pihole 35M May 24 08:47 /etc/pihole/gravity.db
-rw-r--r-- 1 pihole pihole 34M May 19 05:45 /etc/pihole/gravity_temp.db
-rw-r--r-- 1 pihole pihole 25M May 24 09:00 /etc/pihole/pihole-FTL.db
Any thoughts?
suggestion for v5: Maybe you could add an optdepend on php-sqlite?
People who are using this with php-fpm via nginx/apache will otherwise be unable to access the database settings from the web interface.
EDIT: Sorry, this should have gone over to pi-hole-server, as that's where all the other php stuff is... (Duh...)
ver. 5.0 note: after updating please remember to restart your web server or simply reboot.
I derived that assumption directly from the PR I linked.
Also, my current progress on this package is:
nettle35.patch is obsolete
glib.patch is obsolete
in the arch-ftl-X.Y.patch tweaking the LIBS diff is enough to get it to compile (the original line changed but the replacement is ok)
I did some testing with touch "$pkgdir/etc/pihole/logrotate" because I got errors about this and some other file, but I don't know if pihole is supposed to create the files itself.
P.S. I think the patch should be included in the package and the time shouldn't be added to the filename, but I don't know your reasoning on this matter.
yes!! i needed the symlink confirmation. time saving, thanks a lot.

ArchLinux Pi-hole is not officially supported by Pi-hole project. In case of bugs and malfunctions please DO NOT file a report upstream.
First of all check if the wiki (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pi-hole) can help then ask here for assistance and tips.
When it will be excluded that the problem does not depend on ArchLinux we will file a bug upstream.
