I have used no-ip to update dynamic DNS for some time and it work great. I recently tried to have it run a script after update, but it didn’t run. The script runs fine when manually triggered, but the no-ip program does not trigger it.  
If I run:

```nohighlight
noip2 -S

```

I get the following output (with redacted ####)

```nohighlight
1 noip2 process active.

Process 11584, started as noip2, (version 2.1.9)
Using configuration from /usr/local/etc/no-ip2.conf
Last IP Address set ###.###.###.###
Account ################@gmail.com
configured for:
        host #################.noip.me
Executing /tmp/DietPi-Config/bash upon successful update.
Updating every 30 minutes via /dev/eth0 with NAT enabled.

```

The problem is that second last line (Executing). That is not the path I entered for the script and it doesn’t even exist. I carefully entered /mnt/dietpi\_userdata/wan-ip-update.sh. And yes, that is the path to the script, and as I mentioned, it runs fine manually. It seems that the path to the script is not being properly captured or saved by the no-ip config program. There is nothing intelligible in the no-ip2.conf file (seems encrypted).

Any advice?
