seems like it is updatin every hour, of half an our. This could be related to my DHCP renewal time. Sometimes it's 1800 seconds, other times it's 3600 seconds.
however, I seem to always get the same IP address on every renewal.

I'll look further into the script.

[sullrich]

You're cache file still reads 0.0.0.0?

Did it ever succeed?

[mickeybyte]

nope, cachedIP is always 0.0.0.0, so when it compares wanip with cacheIP, it's always different

[sullrich]

That's wild.  Try unblocking yourself and watching the first run of the dyndns client, if the provider gives a ok message it should update the cache file.

[mickeybyte]

Let's look at the function DetectChange:
function _detectChange() {

log_error("DynDns: _detectChange() starting.");

$currentTime = time();

$wan_ip = get_current_wan_address();
                        $this->_dnsIP = $wan_ip;
                        log_error("DynDns: Current WAN IP: {$wan_ip}");

if (file_exists($this->_cacheFile)) {
                                if(file_exists($this->_cacheFile))
                                        $contents = file_get_contents($this->_cacheFile);
                                else
                                        $contents = "";
                                list($cacheIP,$cacheTime) = split(':', $contents);
                                $this->_debug($cacheIP.'/'.$cacheTime);
                                $initial = false;
                                log_error("DynDns: Cached IP: {$cacheIP}");
                        } else {
                                conf_mount_rw();
                                $file = fopen($this->_cacheFile, 'w');
                                fwrite($file, '0.0.0.0:'.$currentTime);
                                fclose($file);
                                conf_mount_ro();
                                $cacheIP = '0.0.0.0';
                                $cacheTime = $currentTime;
                                $initial = true;
                                log_error("DynDns: No Cached IP found.");
                        }

/*  use 2419200 for dyndns, dhs, easydns, noip, hn
                        *  zoneedit, dyns, ods
                        */
                        $time = '2419200';

$needs_updating = FALSE;
                        /* lets deterimine if the item needs updating /
                        if ($cacheIP != $wan_ip) {
                                $needs_updating = TRUE;
                                log_error("DynDns: cacheIP != wan_ip.  Updating.");
                        }
                        $update_reason = "Cached IP: {$cacheIP} WAN IP: {$wan_ip} ";
                        if (($currentTime - $cacheTime) > $time ) {
                                $needs_updating = TRUE;
                                log_error("DynDns: More than 28 days.  Updating.");
                        }
                        $update_reason .= "{$currentTime} - {$cacheTime} > {$time} ";
                        if ($initial == TRUE) {
                                $needs_updating = TRUE;
                                $update_reason .= "Inital update. ";
                                log_error("DynDns: Initial run.  Updating.");
                        }
                        /  finally if we need updating then store the
                        *  new cache value and return true
                        */
                        if($needs_updating == TRUE) {
                                return TRUE;
                        } else {
                                return FALSE;
                        }

log_error("DynDns debug information: {$update_reason}");

}

especially the last part here
in comments, it says:
/*  finally if we need updating then store the
                        *  new cache value and return true
                        */
                        if($needs_updating == TRUE) {
                                return TRUE;
                        } else {
                                return FALSE;
                        }

but I don't see anywhere in the script some code that realy updates the cache file?

[sullrich]

Look further up:

if ($this->_detectChange() == FALSE) {
$this->_error(10);
} else {
if ($this->_dnsService == 'dyndns' ||
$this->_dnsService == 'dyndns-static' ||
$this->_dnsService == 'dyndns-custom' ||
$this->_dnsService == 'dhs' ||
$this->_dnsService == 'noip' ||
$this->_dnsService == 'easydns' ||
$this->_dnsService == 'hn' ||
$this->_dnsService == 'zoneedit' ||
$this->_dnsService == 'dyns' ||
$this->_dnsService == 'ods')
{
$this->_update();
} else {
$this->_error(6);
}
}

[mickeybyte]

Sorry,

there is in function CheckStatus at the end:

if($successful_update == true) {
                                /* Write WAN IP to cache file */
                                conf_mount_rw();
                                $file = fopen($this->_cacheFile, 'w');
                                fwrite($file, $wan_ip.':'.$currentTime);
                                fclose($file);
                                conf_mount_ro();
                        }

but it doesn't seem to do it I guess.

[sullrich]

I have reports from many people that it does work, so I am at a loss.

[mickeybyte]

Scott,

I've changed the Cachefile to update it with my current IP. then reactivated the dyndns service, and this is what I get in logs:
Dec 15 23:40:50 php: /services_dyndns.php: phpDynDNS: No Change In My IP Address and/or 28 Days Has Not Past. Not Updating Dynamic DNS Entry.
Dec 15 23:40:50 php: /services_dyndns.php: DynDns: Cached IP: <cache ip="">Dec 15 23:40:50 php: /services_dyndns.php: DynDns: Current WAN IP: <current ip="">Dec 15 23:40:50 php: /services_dyndns.php: DynDns: _detectChange() starting.

Dec 15 23:40:50 php: /services_dyndns.php: DynDns: Running updatedns()

So that part is working!
Still have no clue why the cache file didn't get updated, so'll do some testing now, trying to get my wan ip changed, or to manually change cache file to something else and see what it does</current></cache>

[sullrich]

update_file.sh /etc/inc/dyndns.class

I've added a logging portion to log when the cache file is updated.

[mickeybyte]

OK, this is what happened:
I've created a new dyndns dynamic host, to do the test, cause it takes some hours to unblock one

I've added in the cache file 192.168.1.1
I've release and renewed my WAN ip to trigger the dyndns service:
in logs:
Dec 15 23:56:02 php: /services_dyndns.php: phpDynDNS: (Success) IP Address Changed Successfully! (<my wan="" ip="">)
Dec 15 23:56:02 php: /services_dyndns.php: phpDynDNS: updating cache file /cf/conf/dyndns.cache:

Dec 15 23:56:01 php: /services_dyndns.php: DynDns: updatedns() starting
Dec 15 23:56:01 php: /services_dyndns.php: DynDns: Running updatedns()

When I check Dyndns website, my account is updated with the new address (I've put 192.168.1.1 in it when creating, now it shows me my current WAN IP )
I check the cache file on pfSense, and what do I see? only ":" (without the quotes), so there's no IP or timestamp in it?
I do again a release and renew of WAN interface:
Dec 15 23:57:20 php: : phpDynDNS: (Success) No Change In IP Address
Dec 15 23:57:20 php: : DynDns: Current Service: dyndns
Dec 15 23:57:20 php: : DynDns: DynDns _checkStatus() starting.
Dec 15 23:57:18 php: : DynDns: DynDns _update() starting.
Dec 15 23:57:18 php: : DynDns: More than 28 days. Updating.
Dec 15 23:57:18 php: : DynDns: cacheIP != wan_ip. Updating.

Dec 15 23:57:18 php: : DynDns: updatedns() starting
Dec 15 23:57:18 php: : DynDns: Running updatedns()

in the logs it also says me now the cache is empty, so not even 0.0.0.0 any more!?
I also see in the first successful update, the extra logging you added. But should there also not be the ip you put in the cache?</my></my></my>

[sullrich]

Ummmmf.

That appears to be a regression from moving the cache update block.

update_file.sh /etc/inc/dyndns.class

I've made a change to set $wan_Ip

[mickeybyte]

almost there!

Dec 16 00:10:14 php: : phpDynDNS: (Success) IP Address Changed Successfully! (<my wan="" ip="">)

Dec 16 00:10:13 php: : DynDns: updatedns() starting
Dec 16 00:10:13 php: : DynDns: Running updatedns()

and if I do another release and renew of my wan interface:
Dec 16 00:11:49 php: : phpDynDNS: (Success) No Change In IP Address
Dec 16 00:11:49 php: : DynDns: Current Service: dyndns
Dec 16 00:11:49 php: : DynDns: DynDns _checkStatus() starting.

Dec 16 00:11:48 php: : DynDns: updatedns() starting
Dec 16 00:11:48 php: : DynDns: Running updatedns()

seems like cacheIP is OK, but timestamp is still empty. Guess is it the same problem as with the cacheIP variable :P</my></my></my></my>

[rds_correia]

So, the question is, is this fixed on 0.96.4?
Guess not, right?
Has a ticket been raised to solve this?
How can we check in the tickets page if a ticket has been fixed in a new version?
Sorry but I want to make sure that my dyndns account is not deleted again ;).
Cheers

[mickeybyte]

Yes, the output looks ok, so if you've done this after Scott had updated the files, you'll have the correct versions for dyndns to work smoothly

And yes, I'm still running fine with dyndns.

I also find it hard to search through the ticket system to find out if something is fixed in a new release
It would be nice if there would be a changes.txt file that is updated at each new release stating what has been fixed, updated, added, deleted
e.g.

0.96.6:

• fixed dyndns cachedIP issue
• updated Intel NIC drivers to version 999.0.2.99stable
• …

0.96.4:

• ...

You bet it would.
But since they're working so hard and are such a small team, I wonder if that is not asking too much of them  ::).

@mickeybyte:

…so if you've done this after Scott had updated the files, you'll have the correct versions for dyndns to work smoothly...

Bear with me just this once more mickeybyte…
What commands do I have to enter in an SSH session in order that my box doesn't screw up dyndns?
I'm sorry that this may look too obvious for you but it ain't for me  :-[.

no problem, that's why we are here for…
in a SSH session enter following commands
update_file.sh /etc/crontab <enter>update_file.sh /etc/inc/dyndns.class <enter>after that reboot your firewall through the web interface, or by entering following command in the ssh session: shutdown -r now <enter>Greetz,
