• [x] I have searched this repository/Pi-hole forums for existing issues and pull requests that look similar

How to reproduce the issue

1. Environment data

   • Operating System: WSL (Ubuntu)
   • Hardware: PC
   • Kernel Architecture: assume x64/amd64
   • Docker Install Info and version:
   • Software source: Docker Desktop (Windows)
   • Supplimentary Software:
   • Hardware architecture: x64(?)

2. docker-compose.yml contents, docker run shell command, or paste a screenshot of any UI based configuration of containers here

3. any additional info to help reproduce

These common fixes didn't work for my issue

• [x] I have tried removing/destroying my container, and re-creating a new container
• [x] I have tried fresh volume data by backing up and moving/removing the old volume data
• [x] I have tried running the stock docker run example(s) in the readme (removing any customizations I added)
• [x] I have tried a newer or older version of Docker Pi-hole (depending what version the issue started in for me)
• [ ] I have tried running without my volume data mounts to eliminate volumes as the cause

If the above debugging / fixes revealed any new information note it here. Add any other debugging steps you've taken or theories on root cause that may help.

WSL or WSL2? I have a feeling WSL is not compatible - but it's been a while since I've tried.

I used Docker with the WSL2 based engine all the time for testing and am able to access the web UI from my PC....

[vvirtues]

wsl2, sorry for not specifying

Works for me... interesting that it does not for you! Do you have any other web services running either in docker or otherwise on your Windows PC?

OH. You're missing the FTLCONF_LOCAL_IPV4 environment variable (It's listed in the Readme 😉)

Before:

After:

This variable will not be needed in the upcoming V6 release

for some reason entering my local IP doesn't work #1658

is it okay to set as localhost instead?
