THis is the hardway, I've experience more problem than I used to before.
Homebeacon is not working, HTTP syntax error. Noone except programmer knows what that means.

And now I am trying to use this VBScript to update my ip.
THe VBScript has problem too!!.

UpdateDynDNS.vbs(103, 5) Microsoft VBScript runtime error
: Object required: 'xmlRoot'

WHat is this?? I installed vbscript 5.6 package from Microsoft.
What else do I need to run this script successfully???


Because the Homebeacon not doing its job, our company has lost a lot emails, this is critical to us. Please help!!

If you can send support@changeip.com some logfiles from the HomingBeacon showing what is not working then we can fix it.

I will look into the vbs script and see what is not working per your report below.

Hello,

Please update this line:

DYNDNSUPDATECMD = \"https://www.ChangeIP.com/nic/update?hostname=<HOST>&ip=<IP>\"

to this:

DYNDNSUPDATECMD = \"https://www.ChangeIP.com/nic/update?hostname=<HOST>&ip=<IP>&xml=1\"

Add in the &xml=1 to get XML output so that script can parse the result. I will update the source on the site now.

Hi Sam again,

I have midified the code, the update script is working now.
Great thanks. You are doing a great job there.

Hi
the VbScript using 95%~ 98% of CPU.

Whole System will be slow down,
This is unacceptable on the Server machine.
Is there anyway to fix it?

HomingBeacon not updating, this script use almost all CPU cycles.
Any other suggestion?

Thank you.

If this is happening with VBS as well as VB then it might be something wrong with your machine installation possibly. There should be nothing in the VBS that is causing a hangup like that, maybe there is something with the network being blocked. Can you let us know what server software you are using, what service pack, as well as any other pertinent details?

Thx,
Sam
