Are you running pihole in the same vm?

If that's the case then you either need to run them in separate VMs or you need to give lancache a different ip

I finally got it working. And yes i was running them on 2 separat vms

Answer: 

Found a way to get pi hole and steam cache working at the same time, first install and setup pihole.

 

The follow this guid for steamcache https://lurkingforgames.com/lancache

Then in pihole settings: 192.168.x.x/admin uncheck google and all other dns, then set custom upstream dns as your steamcache (192.168.x.223) server,  set router dns as pihole adress 192.168.x.x

 

Therer u go, took me a while, but not it works!

Ive followed this guide (with the update monothlic / lancache-dnses)

 

Im running 2 vms, pihole and the steam cache.

 

Ive set the dns on the steamcache to point at the pihole.

 

Im using the pihole dns on my gaming rig.

 

But when i download games from steam or blizzard. Its not caching, the steamcache is doing 0. 

Is it no longer possible to use caching?

Why do you start a topic for every single comment on your SteamCache server build? Your help request is so disjointed amongst 5 topics and it seems you ask for help but then you go ahead and rebuild everything so your help requests become redundant.

As for the actual issue, "Steamcache" docker is deprecated and replaced by lancachenet. Theres an entire thread about Steamcache, and someone has posted a guide for the new setup which you've already been following, so why the need to question this again?

Cuz i cant get it to work, nothing happens when i enter the new guided commands.

 

Edit: this is an example of the errors i get, hence asking does this even work anymore ?

 

Error starting userland proxy: listen udp 192.168.50.239:53: bind: address already in use.

 

And the guide in lancache.net to configuer the listen port doesnt even work, nothing happens.

 

when i try to enter the command

sudo docker run \    
  --restart unless-stopped -d \
  --name lancache-dns \
  -p 192.168.50.239:53:53/udp \
  -e UPSTREAM_DNS=1.1.1.1 \
  -e STEAMCACHE_IP=192.168.50.239 \
  -e ORIGINCACHE_IP=192.168.50.240 \
  -e BLIZZARDCACHE_IP=192.168.50.241 \
  lancachenet/lancache-dns:latest

This error would indicate that port 53 is in use, which means you've installed something that's using that port like dnsmasq etc... Have you checked you don't have duplicate dockers running from your multiple config attempts? 

 

You can run 'sudo docker ps' to check what containers are running.

 

You can also run 'sudo lsof -i :53' to check the process bound to the port

Are you running pihole in the same vm?

If that's the case then you either need to run them in separate VMs or you need to give lancache a different ip
