DNS resolution problem (parse of /etc/resolv.conf failed)

Postby josealberto4444 » Tue Aug 07, 2018 10:56 am

Hi, I have a problem with resolving DNS requests from a Raspberry Pi 3B+ that is running pi-hole as a server.

For example, I get this when using dig to find my external IP address:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '$ dig +short myip.opendns.com @resolver1.opendns.com
dig: parse of /etc/resolv.conf failed')

My /etc/resolv.conf:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '$ cat /etc/resolv.conf
# This file is managed by man:systemd-resolved(8). Do not edit.
#
# This is a dynamic resolv.conf file for connecting local clients directly to
# all known uplink DNS servers. This file lists all configured search domains.
#
# Third party programs must not access this file directly, but only through the
# symlink at /etc/resolv.conf. To manage man:resolv.conf(5) in a different way,
# replace this symlink by a static file or a different symlink.
#
# See man:systemd-resolved.service(8) for details about the supported modes of
# operation for /etc/resolv.conf.

nameserver 192.168.1.153
nameserver 192.168.1.1
nameserver fe80::1%2')

IP 192.168.1.153 is the machine.

Also, if I try to update pi-hole ad-lists, I get an error related:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '$ pihole -g
[✗] DNS resolution is currently unavailable')

The thing is that it can actually resolve names, as I can ping anywhere:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '$ ping gnu.org
PING gnu.org (208.118.235.148) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from wildebeest.gnu.org (208.118.235.148): icmp_seq=1 ...')

I searched in pi-hole forums and asked people about it and they say it doesn't seem to be related with pi-hole, but a general DNS resolution issue:

Thanks!
