Code:
http://pi.hole:8080/admin/
- To finish, update moOde database:
Code:
sudo sqlite3 "/var/local/www/db/moode-sqlite3.db" "DROP TRIGGER IF EXISTS ro_columns"
sudo sqlite3 "/var/local/www/db/moode-sqlite3.db" "UPDATE cfg_hash SET VALUE = '$(md5sum /etc/nginx/nginx.conf | cut -d " " -f1)' WHERE PARAM = '/etc/nginx/nginx.conf'"
sudo sqlite3 "/var/local/www/db/moode-sqlite3.db" "CREATE TRIGGER ro_columns BEFORE UPDATE OF param, value, [action] ON cfg_hash FOR EACH ROW BEGIN SELECT RAISE(ABORT, 'read only'); END;"
