Redirection Infinite Loop / Landing Page Never Loads

[advra]

I am able to access admin control panel of pihole fine at 192,168.1.2/admin however when accessing a website that has been blocked (in my case wololo.net) I get an infinite redirect loop (http://www.wololo.net/192.168.1.2/blocked/?url=www.wololo.net). I never see the PiPass landing page.

Any idea what I may be doing wrong? I have pihole installed in default location. Upon PiPass install I directed the document root location to /var/www/html which is where the admin and pihole folders reside.

Can you post the config.php file?

Oh my apologies.. I needed to prepend http:// to the front. Changing it to the line below works:

$conf['blockpage_url'] = "http://192.168.1.2/blockedpage/";
