If 53 taken on ubuntu
Ubuntu 19.10, clean install not messed around. I use Docker and would like to install PiHole via Docker Compose.
However on Ubuntu systemd-resolve uses port 53 by default. That port needs to be available for port binding for PiHole. To solve this: sudo nano /etc/systemd/resolved.conf
Uncomment and change to no (everything is commented out by default):
DNSStubListener=no Restart the service.
