Dynamic DNS do not appear on Services

Hello,

I have got an old version of openWRT (I´m using only for a test in an old router, I can not install a newer version, so I need to continue with this one).

I´m trying to have my own VPN Server on this router.

Now I´m with the configuration of ddns and when I Install the next Packages:

opkg update
opkg install ddns-scripts
opkg install ddns-scripts_xxxxx
opkg install wget ca-certificates
opkg install curl ca-bundle

The dynamic DNS option does not appear into services Menu.

During the installation, I have got this problem:

root@LEDE:~# 162345 WARN : Service section disabled! - TERMINATE
162345 WARN : Service section disabled! - TERMINATE

I Can not continue with the process.

Can you help me?

Thanks.

LEDE died several years ago...

Did you try to enable the service ?

you need to install luci-app-ddns. I believe that was available back in the LEDE days.

These errors are related to the fact you don't have a valid configuration (yet). when it completes installation, it launches the daemon which cannot do anything because there is no active and valid config, thus the error. Okay to disregard.

Please also understand that LEDE is not suitable for exposure to the internet anymore... it has many security vulnerabilities and has been EOL and unsupported for many years now. (I do understand your comment about the hardware situatoin -- but don't use that on the internet -- get newer hardware ASAP).

Which service I need to Enable?

Sorry but I dont understand your message.
How can I have a Valid Configuration?

Is the first time that I´m using openWRT, as I said is just for testing and I´m new on that.

Thanks.

I assume there's a conf file somewhere, for the ddns ?

You can't, yet... that's the point.

When you install the ddns scripts, it comes with a default configuration that has the entries disabled (because they're just examples, not valid real configs). Then, when the install finishes, it actually tries to run the ddns script, and it fails because nothing is configured+enabled. That is why you have those errors.

You need to edit the ddns configuration to put in your own valid config, then launch it again (or just reboot the router and it will auto-launch).

Hello,

I solved...

I have install all in Spanish, so, I need to install that package:

luci-i18n-ddns-ES

:wink:

Thanks a lot

Great.
