Marcs Updater

There have been some reports about issues with the Updater not updating anymore. Please try the latest beta version and switch to another IP Check provider instead of the previous default dnsomatic.com. For some reason they are rate-limiting the number of requests to their service. The new IP Check provider selection allows you to choose another provider in such cases. You can test the functionality with the new "Test" panel.

If you want to add a custom provider to the unstable testing version, store a JSON file like the following under %PROGRAMDATA%\Marcs Updater\ServiceProviders\dyndns.json:

{
    "name": "DynDNS.org (Test)",
    "endpoint": "https://members.dyndns.org/nic/update",
    "method": "GET",
    "queryString": "hostname={HOSTNAME}&myip={MYIP}",
    "dataPayload": "",
    "defaults": {
        "username": "test",
        "password": "test",
        "hostname": "test1.customtest.dyndns.org"
    }
}

Supported query and payload tags are {USERNAME}, {PASSWORD}, {HOSTNAME} and {MYIP}. Restart the background service and foreground application to apply any changes.

Dear all!

I'm running version 305 and I'm getting a badauth error with DynDNS.

1) The password of the DynDNS account wasn't changed.
2) The badauth error occurred on multiple pc's running version 305 or earlier.
3) Occurred after a Windows update, unknown which one.
4) Occurred on Win 10 & Win 7 and Win 8.1 randomly, on multiple pc's.
5) When re-entering the password again (same one), it works fine again. But for how long? ;-)

I think the cause is related to a Windows 10 update... Or Dyn changing the hash of the password or something like that?
Is it possible to determine that?

Any idea how this can be fixed in the future?

I just upgraded to 1.5.3.304, and am getting badauth messages instead of IP updates. I did an upgrade through the software (it prompted for the upgrade). I re-entered all my information, and now it's not even trying.

Hi

I'm trying to install the updater on server 2016, the install seems to go through correctly but the service is never created\registered and trying to launch the exe doesn't do any thing. Been using it on 2012 since it was released with no issues and would be great if you can get it working on 2016.

Regards

David

Nach dem Update von letzter Nacht hat das letzte Stable-Release 1.5.2.294 des Updaters leider seinen Dienst eingestellt. Auch eine Neu-Installation hat keine Besserung gebracht. Das Programm startet nicht mehr. Die Version 1.5.3.300 startet zwar, bietet mir aber nicht mehr strato als host an :-(

Gibt es hier eine Möglichkeit, das irgendwo einzustellen?
