I see you are getting no joy on this subject. I do use ddclient, but I use it on dyndns with use=web. Those things that are comparable appear to be correct. I can't help troubleshoot cmd= or the no-ip distinctives.

I use daemon=1200 so your 86400 is definitely not too often.

login and password need to be your actual no-ip.com credentials.

With any luck, my reply will wake up an actual no-ip user.

Earlier this week, my server updated to ddclient-3.10.0. This caused nothing but grief and tons of errors with every check. I finally masked it and added 3.9.1-r2 to my local repo. Works perfectly again.

There is virtually no documentation. With 3.10.0 installed, ddclient --help doesn't match what actually works. Before filing a bug, I'll see if this post draws any notice. I can't help but notice that the 3.10.0 source is over 4 x the size of 3.9.1.

Hi,

I found to this topic while searching for information about problems seen after update to ddclient-3.10.0. After update my previously working configuration doesn't appear to work anymore. This is my configuration, with inessential parts removed:
Code:
daemon=600
syslog=yes
ssl=yes

use=web, web=ifconfig.me/ip
protocol=noip
login=mylogin
password=mypassword
mydomain.ddns.net

This results with errors in the syslog on each update attempt:
Code:
FAILED:   updating mydomain.ddns.net: unexpected status (15)
FAILED:   updating : unexpected status ()
FAILED:   updating : unexpected status (0)
FAILED:    was not updated because protocol <undefined> is not supported.

I guess I'll roll back this update as well, it clearly broke something. That's following the path of least resistance, but I don't have the energy to investigate what went wrong and where.

I found putting "curl=yes" into the config bypassed the oddness with Perl and got mine to work.
