Any known issues since update / dyn dns ?

@oldlock have you tried removing your configuration and then adding it again? I had that issue with google dns and 21.02 and doing so fixed my issue. No issues with 21.05.

I had not, but have now and no it made no difference. Result : Failed ...

Is this a 'free' account where you have to do a manual visit after each 28 days to keep your account alive ?
They send you a mail every 28 days, and you have to take action upon receiving this mail : do what the mails says. If not, the account gets suspended and the ''fail' will be the result.

@gertjan

Yes, I know and have been using it as such for months.

I just created a hostname @ noip :

The A record defaulted to my WAN IP, 82.127.34.254 (please, don't tell anyone) so I changed it to something different : 82.127.34.10

Then I set up a no ip dyndns client :

After the initial save, I edited the settings, just to apply the "Apply é Force" button.

It's IMPORTANT that, when you force an update, the registered A record at no-ip has not your current, actual WAN IP. That's why I changed it to 82.127.34.10 up front.
If that was so, your update will be considered as not needed and abusive and you might be "punished" - this will produce a fail for sure.

It finished to do "it's thing" and although I was asking for a verbose log, I could not find any info about the activity in the pfSense logs.

I did find a trace on my remote syslogger : (in reverse order) :

/services_dyndns_edit.php: phpDynDNS (test-domain22.ddns.net): (Success) IP address is current, no update performed.

So, it works for me
All is well.

Tell us what you did wrong, and we'll tell you what you did wrong ;)

edit : these log lines seem messy to me. I guess I've added them myself somewhere in the past. Not sure.

oldlock

Ok. I enabled the logging. Pls remember this has been working day in day out for months with no problems.

The log said the username / password is wrong. That is not the case. I've checked and re-entered it twice.

Is there a way to roll back the OS on the SG1100 ?

@oldlock
I just did an update to my free Noip address and it worked fine. Short of a typo in the creds, like a leading/trailing space, I'd go ahead and reset the PW on the account. Maybe your account got munged at the far end.

oldlock

OK. Password reset at noip and the entry deleted and recreated. Same error.

Call me cynical but something in my install must have been screwed up with the last update, yours works that suggests the code is good, so it has to be this instance.

So anything know how to roll back or reinstall the same image ?

Gertjan

Before, I could say - and proof it - that you and I use the same code.
These days, Netgate"s devices use a firmware - and non-Netgate's device uses another firmware, as I'm using the CE version.

Look at this : https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/commits/master/src/etc/inc/dyndns.class :

You are using this new 'Netgate' version, with this patch from 27 days ago, and I'm not.

This is the redmine issue : https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/11815

You could 'park' the actual /etc/inc/dyndns.class file, and replace it with this one :

oldlock

Well the long and short of it is that it stopped working with the last update. Anyone have any insights as to how to force a reinstall ?

serbus

Hello!

Are you using noip groups?

I'll translate :

@gertjan said in Any known issues since update / dyn dns ?:

You could 'park' the actual /etc/inc/dyndns.class file, and replace it with this one :

Rename the file /etc/inc/dyndns.class to - fro example /etc/inc/dyndns.class.bak

Take this version, https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pfsense/pfsense/fe6b125233f40f5919746b1cb90c39b459aa39fd/src/etc/inc/dyndns.class

And you'll be fine.

You can manually replace https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/blob/e6389f634a25f6c391531d779e147883568a3e83/src/etc/inc/dyndns.class#L578

with curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERPWD, $this->_dnsUser . ':' . $this->_dnsPass);

see https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/12021

oldlock

Thanks, That has resumed the correct function of the dyn dns .

Hi, thanks for this. I can confirm the change has fixed the issue for me. Thinking long term, will this change 100% make it into the next update or is there a possibility the fix will be overwritten to the old code by a future update? (Sorry if this sounds like a daft question but not 100% up to speed with how releases are managed).

make it into the next update

Newer versions will include the patches, like the one proposed by viktor_g.
