Unfortunately program seems to crash when trying to install as administrator:

1. Command prompt as Admin
2. cloudflareddns.exe /install
3. Tried blank credentials, , ./, etc.
4. User has login as service rights
5. Tried to use sc, but there must be an undocumented switch for running as a service?

Despite entering all of the requested information, when attempting to fetch my domain's DNS records via the Fetch Records button yeilds the errors shown in the following screenshot:

I'm trying to install this as a service on Windows Server 2012 R2. When I run it standalone it works fine and when I run /install from the terminal no errors are thrown. However no new service appears in the Windows service manager and the updater does not start on boot. Any idea's what could be wrong?

(Zone does not exist)

Hello,
Would you please check if it work?
I think CloudFlare Api is no more?

Is anyone planning to update to use the latest CloudFlare API v4 as it looks like they are retiring the original version currently used?

@birkett having a major issue, event log data at https://i.615283.net/u/099ae7.png

The app should be able to run as a Windows service. I have two thoughts on how to approach this:

1. Have the current codebase act as a service when invoked with a switch. Present the UI when running normally.

-or-

2. Split out the update / fetch logic, move this into a separate service executable. Then have the UI communicate with the service, passing a list of hosts to update.

run as admin. crashes afre some time.

Updated for Cloudflare API v4. Feel free to take a look here. Basic functionality is done but needs help with Windows Services programming with C# cuz I am kinda not familiar wif it. Cheers! 😸

It would be nice if it supports pushing IPv6 address to AAAA record!

I set this up about a month ago, and it was working perfectly. I tested by going into my cf dashboard and changing the ip on my two A recs (www and mydomain.com) and withing a few seconds they were changed back to the correct ips. But today my ip actually changed from my isp for the first time since installing this and it did not update. The service is still running, but doesn't seem to be working. Any way to troubleshoot?

win10 64 with nginx

Edit: latest logs show cfddns updater is running every 5 minutes... just not updating anything

Move all network access into threads, this will prevent locking the UI.
Requires architecture changes.

I got this error thrown in the event log when I tried to run the program as a service.

System.Threading.ThreadAbortException: Thread was being aborted.

It works fine if I run it manually just not as a service!

Hi there, i run 2 domains and would like to update both with this updater.
Can multi domain support be added to this at all?
For my use this is managed under one account/API key

This would be a good option for me if supported.

I found this project as a possible replacement for FlareDNS, which recently seems to have stopped updating my Windows machines properly. It seemed like it would be a pretty simple drop-in, configure, and go, but that hasn't been my experience.

The documentation doesn't really say what putting in "your details" will do, but from reading the code it looks like the app updates every single A record in the zone you give it to the current machine's public IP. Thankfully I didn't configure it correctly, or most of my websites would have been knocked offline until I put the right IPs back in.

Am I missing a way to specify the zone (e.g. mydomain.name) and then specify only a single subdomain (e.g. windows1.mydomain.name) to be updated?

I hate to misuse the issue tracker like this, but since finding @birkett on Twitter didn't work out I needed to just get in touch however I could.
