Hey, I think I discovered an issue that when the record is within updates.json it will no longer update the record if the IP changes. This is repeatable because as long as the updates.json exists it will not update the record. Delete the file and boot up the container and it will update the record.

  1. Is this urgent?

    • Yes
    • No

  2. What DNS service provider(s) are you using?

    • Cloudflare
    • DDNSS.de
    • DNSPod
    • Dreamhost
    • DuckDNS
    • GoDaddy
    • Google
    • Infomaniak
    • Namecheap
    • NoIP

  3. What's the version of the program?

    See the line at the top of your logs

    Running version latest built on 2020-06-01T21:16:36Z (commit 9ccdbbd)

  4. What are you using to run the container?

    • Docker run
    • Docker Compose
    • Kubernetes
    • Docker stack
    • Docker swarm
    • Podman
    • Other:

  5. Extra information

@qdm12 commented on GitHub (Jun 3, 2020):

Thanks for reporting this 🥇! It was indeed silently not updating because:

  1. It was finding the latest stored IP address in updates.json
  2. Check if it matches the public IP address obtained
  3. Finish and mark the record as up to to date if these were equal, despite the DNS resolution saying otherwise

I have simply removed that check, relying on DNS lookup is more reliable in my opinion.

However, I can see lookup netdata.URL on 127.0.0.11:53: no such host as well as for shlink-server.URL, any reason for this? You're safe as in this case, they will be updated at every check period. Ideally though, it would only update them when necessary.

Thanks!!
