Title: New Dynamic DNS not working
Post by: nerlins on April 02, 2022, 04:03:16 AM
I can't get this new version to work. It doesn't seem to save my password, doesn't have a dashboard widget, and the logs keep saying found neither IPV4 nor IPV6 address. It also doesn't show up in the services widget, and I also have these errors:

WARNING: file /var/tmp/ddclient.cache, line 3: Invalid Value for keyword 'ip' = ''

WARNING: updating scaleman.ddns.net: nochg: No update required; unnecessary attempts to change to the current address are considered abusive


I am using NOIP. I have tried noip-ipv4, interface, and other options for Check IP Method. Am I doing something wrong?

Nevermind...possibly. Didn't even see the little ENABLE checkbox. Also, Force SSL possibly needs to be disabled for NOIP. I finally got a SUCCESS message after making those changes and enabling verbose logging.

This happens to me also... the "new" ddclient simply does not work and I have to fall back to os-dyndns, which is said to be removed in the future Opnsense release.

Opnsense please... solve the problem before removing something useful okay?

Forget to mention, I am using NOIP free...

Same error here, using FreeDNS.

WARNING: file /var/tmp/ddclient.cache, line 3: Invalid Value for keyword 'ip' = ''

EDIT:
For anyone who came here through a search engine, there is already a thread for this issue here:

Also, even if I remove the malfunctioning ddclient, the following thing still appears in the system log

2022-04-10T21:44:29
ddclient   18075 - [meta sequenceId="1"] WARNING: found neither ipv4 nor ipv6 address
