[BUG] Issues with ddclient using cloudflare and duckdns

[trulow]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

Current Behavior

Anyone have issues with the recent release of ddclient docker container?

ddclient  | ddclient has been restarted
ddclient  | Setting up watches.
ddclient  | Watches established.
ddclient  | FAILED:  [cloudflare][domain.com]> 404 Not Found
ddclient  | FAILED:  [cloudflare][domain2.com]> 404 Not Found
ddclient  | FAILED:  [duckdns][domain]> 404 Not Found

Here's the config

protocol=cloudflare
zone=carlozayne.com
ttl=1
use=web
web=checkip.amazonaws.com
password=<API_KEY>
domain.com

protocol=duckdns
use=web
web=https://checkip.amazonaws.com
password=<API_KEY>
domain

It was previously working, then I updated my container and now I'm getting these errors.

Expected Behavior

No response

Steps To Reproduce

Updated ddclient to the latest docker version
Run the docker container
Errors show up when viewing the logs and ddclient does not update the IP for the required services/protocols

After downgrading back to v3.11.2-ls183, everything seems to be working again. So the issue is with the latest update/s with v4 and up.

I've narrowed the issue down to freedns and got it to finally work on the latest version..

##
## freedns.afraid.org
##
protocol=freedns,    \
server=freedns.afraid.org,    \
login=<USERNAME>,    \
password=<PASSWORD>     \
sub.domain.it

Freedns requires the , \ or else the config gets screwy. Interestingly, I don't have the , \ in any of my other protocols and they all work fine without it. It's only freedns that screws everything else up.
