yep, disable the autodetection and set it manually.
I tried that, added the following line:
option adb_fetchutil 'uclient-fetch'
still the same error, now I also get this when I go to the adbock tab in luci
The option is called 'adb_fetchcmd'. What Router/OpenWrt version did you use?
that was what was written in the readme here:
I changed the adb-fetchutil to adb_fetchcmd 'uclient-fetch'
now adblock shows as running in the syslog, but the luci-adblock tab has disappeared and even if I uninstall and reinstall it, I don't get the adblock tab back.
Reboot your router or restart the rpcd service (/etc/init.d/rpcd restart) ... and use chrome for testing, cause caching in firefox is a mess.
restarted the router, using chrome still no adblock in luci, I then removed luci-app-adblock and rebooted and then re-added it again. Same old story...no adblock in luci
Sorry, not reproducible. Did you rename adblock.sh or the init script? Which OpenWrt/router did you use?
I renamed nothing, just edited etc/config/adblock. This is a linksys wrt1900acs
Can you open the Adblock page directly if you enter the complete URL? “https://openwrt.lan/cgi-bin/luci/admin/services/adblock”?
actually, if I login with winscp and do a search of / for admin/services/ I get no results
Do you see "luci-app-adblock" when you execute "opkg list-installed | grep adblock"?
yes, it's installed (and it's apk not opkg)
luci-app-adblock is installed here: (along with all the other apps I have on my router)
"/www/luci-static/resources/view/adblock"
luci-app-adblock depends on the following things:
If you haven't renamed anything, it probably can't parse your adblock uci config. Maybe windows line endings or somethings like that ...
the file looks fine to me:

I know that this is not your issue as adblock itself is running, I would just like to say thanks for all your assistance so far.
Please start with a fresh adblock uci config, in opkg times it was called "--force-maintainer" during package installation.
hmm, which option would that be then?
