Please verify that you have read and understood the guidelines.

yes

A clear and concise description of the issue.

I have always the same issue when i run the Homeassistant Helper Script, as well as Adguard (LXC Debian 12 related Helper Scrips). The Error: "DNS Lookup Failure" occurs everytime. When i use verbose mode the next lines are the failed name resolving and thus not fetching the required data.
I tried homeassistant-core helper script and it worked just fine.
Internet connection works just fine, DNS is working properly.
In the PVE Shell the command "apt update" is working fine as well.
I can ping domains as well as ip addresses.

What settings are you currently utilizing?

  • Default Settings
  • Advanced Settings

Which Linux distribution are you employing?

Debian 12

If relevant, including screenshots or a code block can be helpful in clarifying the issue.

Please provide detailed steps to reproduce the issue.

Please verify that the VM/LXC has a correct DNS and can ping to the outside.
Also, make sure not to block outdoing DNS requests to public DNS servers.

And next time, add output logs / screenshot or something else. It's like looking through a crystal ball.

Thanks for the fast response, it was indeed a problem on my site. The VM was pointing to my router as a DNS (altough Proxmox did not, as i changed it in the .conf files) and there was a not working DNS stored.
