Okay so that last post wasn't very informative. Sorry about that but I was rushed for time.

My problems persist though.

messages.log is full of the following:
Code:
Nov 25 10:10:39 mythtv INADYN[4369]: W:INADYN: Main: Error 'RC_DYNDNS_RSP_NOTOK' (0x48).

When I ran
Code:
ps -ef |grep ddclient |wc -l
it told me I had 187 ddclient's running. This may explain why I have had trouble with the machine locking up, and dreadful ssh responsiveness since the upgrade.

I have since ran "killall -v ddclient" and "sv down ddclient". But how do I fix this problem?

the pkg shipped with 7.1 did not respect the -foreground option. I have just uploaded a new pkg to extra (not -testing).
Please update and let me know if it works.

I updated with pacman -S ddclient but it didn't solve the problem. I was still getting several clients starting per minute.

1) pacman -Q ddclient
Code:
ddclient 3.8.0-2

2) /etc/sv/ddclient/run
[root@mythtv mythtv]# /etc/sv/ddclient/run
Code:
:: Starting ddclient

3) cat /var/log/ddclient.log
This log is now blank.
Code:
[root@mythtv mythtv]# ll /var/log/ddclient.log
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Nov 29 11:33 /var/log/ddclient.log

However messages.log is getting a lot of this repeating:
Code:

So it looks like the installed version of ddclient is a pkg or two behind.
It should be at 3.8.0-4

pacman -Ss ddclient
extra-testing/ddclient 3.8.0-4


For step #2 does it drop you back at the prompt, or does it keep running?

Finally
INADYN is another client like ddclient. I think it was used in r6 but somebody switched it out. If it's running then go ahead and kill it.
sv stop inadyn, and if thats not it look in /service for something that looks like it matches.

Sorry but should I have been using extra or extra-testing?

It drops back to the prompt.

Thanks, I didn't realise I had another different client on the system. I've actually now fixed the settings for Inadyn, and it seems to be working.

Thank you for your help with this Jams. My system is working now, but if you want, I'm happy to keep debugging ddclient with you so that the default install can be fixed for other users. Otherwise, how can I disable ddclient from running at startup?

The version in extra is the same as in extra-testing, so it doesn't matter so much which one your using.

Unless others report problems with ddclient, I'm going to consider it closed. I think the updated package will fix the issue with ddclient. Granted I only did one test, but it's better then nothing :)


Inadyn is my client of choice, but ddclient replaced it and unfortunately I don't remember why.

to disable ddclient, run "remove_service.sh ddclient" or disable it in the service menu. Neither action should affect inadyn.

It looks like I misunderstood how to upgrade a package.
I was typing "pacman -S ddclient" and pacman kept wanting to update to 3.8.0-2 that I already had. Because I wasn't using the -Sy option pacman was only looking at the package list it already had. Oops.
Thanks for your help.
