Hello,
I installed the Dyn Updater app on 10/6/2023. The first time I looked at the logs, I multiple lines of error messages. Something like
“frontend - WARNING - API request failed. Status: 500 Method: ipaddress.get,” and “frontend - WARNING - API error: Error connecting to checkipv6.dyndns.org. Please verify your internet connection and try again.” There was also “frontend - WARNING - API error: Error connecting to checkipv6.dyndns.org. Please verify your internet connection and try again,” but I didn’t think about that one as I don’t do IPv6. The log only goes back a week, so I’m not certain that these were exactly what they were.
This morning, I came to my computer to find a few hundred instances of Do you want to allow the Dyn Updater to make changes to your computer? It took a couple of minutes of clicking Yes to clear them all.
2023-10-13 07:33:09,839 - frontend - WARNING - API request failed. Status: 500 Method: ipaddress.get
2023-10-13 07:33:09,839 - frontend - WARNING - API error: Error connecting to checkipv6.dyndns.org. Please verify your internet connection and try again.
2023-10-13 07:35:58,773 - daemon - WARNING - Unable to get IP addresses for (my hostname), will retry later.
This morning shortly after midnight were the following entries to the log:
2023-10-14 00:09:56,201 - daemon - ERROR - An exception occurred when starting the service.
2023-10-14 00:11:20,098 - frontend - WARNING - Failed to receive API response from backend. Attempting to restart daemon.
2023-10-14 00:11:20,492 - daemon - INFO - Insufficient privileges, relaunching as admin.
Those went on every minute until 3:46:50AM, when the entry was:
2023-10-14 03:46:50,872 - daemon - INFO - Insufficient privileges, relaunching as admin.
The next entries were:
2023-10-14 07:19:32,614 - daemon - INFO - Running command start for Windows service.
2023-10-14 07:19:32,958 - daemon - INFO - Launching Windows service...
2023-10-14 07:19:32,988 - daemon - INFO - Windows service started.
Followed by
2023-10-14 07:19:41,803 - daemon - INFO - Running command start for Windows service.
That’s the one that has a few hundred entries, and, I’m assuming, gave me all those windows about making changes to Windows.
Eight seconds into that, there was a:
2023-10-14 07:19:49,509 - daemon - ERROR - An exception occurred in the client daemon, but other than that there’s a couple of minutes of the INFO entry, anywhere from 2-5 times per second.
After that, the following went on for a half hour:

Nothing for the past 50 minutes.
07:19 was about the time I came to my computer, and while the monitor turns off after a period of unuse, the PC never goes to sleep.
Thoughts/recommendations, please?
