@dr-boss @thangvc91 You need to encode the password in base64 first. You could update the crontab with crontab -e and replace your password with a base64 string of your password. You could get your base64 string with echo djfjkgsbsfb | base64

This is actually a duplicated of #61.

hi Michale, Thanks for your response, after I encrypt the password with base64 , the script could work well , but is show the statement as below , can you please help assist ?

image as you can see , I have had already 3 hosts owned by my account, but as far as the info said "no host, no record found in my account ". So wondering if it could update correctly ? or sth wrong with my config ?

@thangvc91 I think the script produced 3 images, debug1.png, debug2.png and exception.png. Could you have a look of those files ? Sometimes if there are popped up boxes, you need to first login manually and try to solve the pop up box so it won't pop up again. And also, it's written in the todo list in the readme, sometimes there will be unsolvable popup box that, unfortunately, will require to manually renew the domain names instead of using the scripts. But I guess it just happen sometimes, so having the script running in crontab it's still nicer.
