Pi-hole hass.os dns breakage

[chrisvella]

Problem/Motivation

A heads up for everyone about this issue as I have resolved it for myself.

Expected behavior

A 3rd party addon repository should have been installed.

Actual behavior

I was trying to add a 3rd party addon repository from marthoc and it would always fail. I don't have the exact error message but this is approximately what it was:

17-11-26 03:13:39 ERROR (MainThread) [hassio.addons.git] Can’t pull https://github.com/marthoc/hassio-addons/ repo: Cmd(‘git’) failed due to: exit code(128)
cmdline: git pull -v origin
stderr: ‘fatal: unable to access ‘https://github.com/marthoc/hassio-addons/’: Couldn’t resolve host ‘github.com’’.

ax42 mentioned he had this issue.

Steps to reproduce

Install the pi-hole addon. I used non-standard ports (880, 4443) but otherwise the default configuration. Then try and add a github addon source.

Proposed changes

I removed pi-hole, rebooted and I am now able to add the repository + got an update notification for Home Assistant. I hope to use pi-hole in the future. Thanks for working on this mate.

I'm unsure what this problem causes. The only thing I can think of, is not having set the IP addresses of your device static. Also be sure your device uses an external DNS resource (static once again).
