hi loblab,
thanks for your great script. could you give a short tutorial on how to install this on a pi?
that would be awesome!

Can you help me understand the logic in lines 104-108 of the noip-renew.py file?

        nr = min(next_renewal) - 6
        today = date.today() + timedelta(days=nr)
        day = str(today.day)
        month = str(today.month)
        subprocess.call(['/usr/local/bin/noip-renew-skd.sh', day, month, "True"])

It is true that the next renewal (nr) variable is always going to be a negative number?!?
Ex: If next_renewal = 5; then nr = 5 - 6 = -1

It looks like your code is trying to schedule the next noip check for a day prior to today's date.
Ex: If nr = 5 and today's date is 3/27, then noip-renew will schedule the next check for 3/26. (Which is a big problem.)

I think it makes more sense to schedule the next check nr days from today's date. In other words:
nr = min(next_renewal) + 6

Let me know what you think!

First of all, great program, I really like it!
To make it work I had to fix two issues:

• I had an Exception "IndexError" here. To fix it, I encapsulated the condition with try - except - pass.
• I had to put in a dot the beginning of the xpath here. In my case I had three hosts, the first one was ok, the other two needed to be confirmed. This did not work without the dot.

Thanks.

Hello,

The python version on raspbian is 3.5.3.
So I adapted the script such that it can be compatible with python < 3.6

See my fork https://github.com/matthiasbe/noip-renew/tree/fix-fstrings

The only edit is to remove f-string (https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0498/)

Thanks a lot for this !

I getting the following message:

Package chromedriver is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'chromedriver' has no installation candidate

I'm getting this message when I run setup.sh:

What do I need to do to install this script?

Windows server 2016 standard
python 3.8.2
update:
ok, I made it work
first write a batchfile like

@echo off
taskkill /F /IM chromedriver.exe
taskkill /F /IM chrome.exe
chcp 65001
cd C:\path to noip-renew
start py "noip-renew.py" "username" "password encoded in base64" 2
exit /b

comment all the subprocess.call(['/usr/local/bin/noip-renew-skd.sh' lines,
because we use Task Scheduler instead of cron job under windows.

add the batch to the Task Scheduler, done!

Hi. I get the following errors when running manually.

The script has been running flawless until 21 juni 2019, where it stopped working according to my log.
I did check noip.com..and i believe I had a CAPTCHA test, but I don't have that anymore on the web interface. Must have been on VPN or something to trigger the CAPTCHA.

I'm doing the update manually now, and its really annoying. I love the noip-renew script.

The renew script has stopped working as you can see, and it ends issuing a error message, that "Chrome version must be between 70 and 73"

I have verified my chormedriver ...as pasted below.

What is wrong?

Only recently the script gives me this error, until recently it always worked correctly:

Hello!

I burnt my RPI few days ago, and after installing/updating the complete previous version, I am now having this error in noip-renew script:

Message: no such element: Unable to locate element: {"method":"xpath","selector":".//a[@class='text-info cursor-pointer']"} (Session info: headless chrome=86.0.4240.197)

I have just gitcloned the project few minutes ago (I saw a PR has been submitted to fix this, but it is not working here).
EDIT: Ohh no my bad, I did not gitcloned because it was saying that the folder was already there

Thanks for your help!

What am i doing wrong here guys???

Hello,

I am trying to run your script on FreeBSD..
Everything going well, till i try to set my NOIP password by using setup.sh, here the error i get :

I've very old version 0.4 and work fine on RPI3.
With 0.9 i've this error:

File "/usr/local/bin/noip-renew.py", line 35
print(f"[{self.time_string_formatter}] - {msg}")
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Hi,
if I run noip-renew from shell everything works fine.
Running on docker I got "No hosts or host table rows not found"

I followed these steps:

export my_username='myusername'
export my_password='mypassword'
export my_host_num='1'
export debug_lvl=2
docker build -t loblab/selenium:debian .

and then (not considering error about No such file or directory: '/usr/local/bin/noip-renew-skd.sh' at the end of run) I've got this...

$  docker run --network host loblab/selenium:debian ${my_username} ${my_password} ${my_host_num} ${debug_lvl}

Similar to #61 where there is a missing file /usr/local/bin/noip-renew-skd.sherror even though the script ran successfully. Maybe adding a dummy file inside the Dockerfile would be better ? Like,

RUN touch /usr/local/bin/noip-renew-skd.sh

right after all the apt-get installation.

Hi
Something is not working right anymore!
The script has not been working for quite a while.

The user in image debug1-2 and exeption.png looks fine.
The script is logging in correctly and loads the correct pages.

Software:
I have cloned latest code on my debian 9 sever - user: debian

The additional Software has been a bit of a nightmare to figure out, since last update.
Mainly because i run Debian 9...so all repos are not running latest versions.
I have sideloaded all software...and this means that running setup.sh...BREALS EVERTHING!
Please change the script to ASK before installing / updating software in an installation script!
IF anwser is no...just list the software installed...and show if its ok or not!
Otherwise the installer will undo all the sideloaded software and downgrade to repo versions!!!

Anyway I have made sure all software are the newest version, and I have no code breaks due to incompatibility!

Hi everyone,

I just pulled the latest version and realized, that for Docker usage, the docker-compose and Dockerfile have changed. As far as i understand it, it is intended that the crontab is run on the Dockerhost, which executes a docker exec to run the update script inside the container. Why has this implementation been choose?

This goes completely against the docker concept. When I run docker-compose up I want everything that is related and neccessary for that container to be in there as well as all of it removed when I run docker-compose down

Cheers
Fabian

Hi,

After configuring the package on my RPI, I am facing this error message:

File "./noip-renew.py", line 35
print(f"[{self.time_string_formatter}] - {msg}")
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

All dependancies with Python have been installed before the configuration of the no-ip account.
Thanks for you help!
Regards

Edit: I made the test with the noip-renew.py, and had exactly the same error message

Hi lollab.

I have added this python function to my code

The function is insearted as the first function in
class Robot:

def pushover(self, msg):
    conn = httplib.HTTPSConnection("api.pushover.net:443")
    conn.request("POST", "/1/messages.json",
    urllib.urlencode({
    "token": "mypushovertoken",
    "user": "mypushoveruserkey",
    "message": msg,
    "device": "SOMEDEVICENAME",    #OPTIONAL switch.....but i like to have this messate send only to a specific device
    }), { "Content-type": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" })
    conn.getresponse()

Its activated here.

    for button in buttons_todo:
        button.click()
        time.sleep(1)
    self.browser.save_screenshot("result.png")
    self.log_msg("Confirmed hosts: %d" % count, 2)

    #pushover
    if count > 0:
            self.pushover("Confirmed hosts: %d" % count)
    return True

The user will receive a pushover notification on his smartphone with the pushover app, with info about number of host confirmed.

Very handy im my opionion.

You could add the pushover info and activation switch in the .sh script with other credientials.

Keep up the good work

Requaero.

would love to know if this is solvable or just defaults to me having to manually do it

I have been using this software for about a year, and it has worked fine. Until recently. I cloned the latest master and ran the setup script (including the "apt get" parts), so I know I have the latest version.
First I got this error message:
Message: unknown error: net::ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED (Session info: headless chrome=88.0.4324.150)

Thinking it was DNS-related, I substituted LOGIN_URL = "https://www.noip.com/login" with LOGIN_URL = "https://8.23.224.107/login" in the python file, but even though there was no raised exception this time, it did not work:
print(self.browser.page_source) (added for debugging reasons) resulted in <html><head></head><body></body></html>

I can't determine if it is the selenium package that is broken, if the selenium package has changed its syntax or default values and the noip-renew scripts have not been updated to match, or if the noip.com webpage has changed its coding. Or if it is DNS- and/or certificate-related. Something that could be the cause is if the headless browser could not verify the certificate of www.noip.com, but I don't know how to troubleshoot this. (The IP address URL gave me a certificate warning in a desktop Firefox session, since the certificate is only valid for the noip.com domain, and that could be the reason. So perhaps the root cause is DNS-related after all.)

Do others have the same problems? Any ideas?

(I have tried this on Ubuntu 20.04 and Ubuntu 20.10, both up-to-date to within a week or so, both running a local dnsmasq instance which works for all other DNS lookups. Python version 3.8.6 (20.10) or 3.8.5 (20.04). Selenium version (according to pip3 list) is 3.141.0 in both cases.)

See in attachment sample.js (easy invoke with node sample.js after install nodejs)
Sample.zip

The script work fine, but need some improvement.
I have also I working version build with Azure Function (linux consumption plan), so low cost solution.
(a timertrigger every 15 days for example and a httptrigger to test it. save to blob storage the screenshot)
Same code as sample.js

Please put in readme.md so also other can be benefit or adopt and start a new project, I no have time to manage it.

On the picture is a button, but script says not found. The changed maybe some names.

It doesn't look like I'm good with pasting the output to my phone very well. Anyway, the ^ is pointing to the " after {msg}.

hello Bros,
I got the issue after i ran as below ? Could you please assist the issue related 'utf-8' . Any assist will be very well appreciated.

Hi again!
I keep moving forward and once again thanks for your help!

I am now facing this issue (the script does not connect) and after checking the files, I am almost sure that is because my pwd contains special characters ($, !, /, etc...).

Regards

edit: In fact does not seem to linked to special char... I changed the pwd and faced the same issue (debug1 showing login page, debug 2 showing user/pwd combination is incorrect). The script reports asuccessful connection btw:

Ran install on rabspberrypi followed all steps added my no-ip acct info and received the following error

root@retropie:~/noip-renew# ./noip-renew.sh
  File "./noip-renew.py", line 35
    print(f"[{self.time_string_formatter}] - {msg}")
                                                  ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

In order to install the script on Raspberry Pi, in addition to the original, follow these steps:

1. Install Selenium since the script does not do so automatically with
   sudo pip install selenium

2. Edit the noip-renew.sh file by changing all occurrences of chromedriver into chromium-chromedriver

3. As of the moment, chromium on Raspbian Buster+ versions does not work without adding the code options.add_argument('--disable-features=VizDisplayCompositor') to noip-renew.py among all the other options under __init__ . Check https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=258019 for reference.
   Running the script without doing step 3 will throw a "Chrome not reachable" error.

Hello,

What's the solution ?

Good afternoon. Thank you for a great script, very useful indeed! However, I encountered a problem - when performing the button click procedure, the process stops on the page with the offer to upgrade to enhanced. I attach a screenshot.

Would you consider making a version of your noip-renew scripts that works on MacOS?

The following file creates the cron job that allows noip-renew to run once every 4 days:
noip-renew-skd.sh

However, this file contains 1 error and 1 suggested improvement.

The Error

The INSTEXE variable points to a file that does not exist. The variable must include the .sh file extension.
Wrong: INSTEXE=$INSTDIR/noip-renew-$USER
Correct: INSTEXE=$INSTDIR/noip-renew-$USER.sh

Suggested Improvement

I was unable to get the cron job working, until I omitted the $USER parameter from the cron job. I use a raspberry pi. Here are the values that I assigned to the CRONJOB and NEWCJOB variables.

CRONJOB="30 0 * * * $INSTEXE $LOGDIR"
NEWCJOB="30 0 $1 $2 * $INSTEXE $LOGDIR"

Hi! I've been trying to use your awesome script to save myself some time and I couldn't get it to work.
Upon running noip-renew.sh this comes up:

Traceback (most recent call last):

I have tried troubleshooting the problem myself but I am kind of inexperienced. I tried changing my chromedriver version to match chrome but that didn't seem to fix it, can you give me a hand?
Thanks!

Hi, I was wondering if there is a ready-to-go Docker image that I can install on my Synology nas. Using Docker on the Synology nas goes to a GUI, so I really don’t know how to install your container without using the GUI.

TIA
