Error: Login token - failure (curl error code: 2)

[zaxy]

Hi - Thanks for a wonderful script which was working for me earlier this year (Feb 2021).
I now get this error every time. It appears to be a curl error so I reinstalled curl, but no joy.
I tried this based on your diagnostic section:
$ curl -%ipv% -A %agent% -m 10 -s https://diagnostic.opendns.com/myip
but get this:
curl: option -%ipv%: is unknown

Please help. This program is doing great things!!

I am on a Ubuntu machine:
Linux 5.4.0-77-generic #86-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jun 17 02:35:03 UTC 2021 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Hi,

When you ran freenom.sh -i there are notes at the bottom:

NOTES:
  %ipv% gets replaced by $freenom_update_ipv
  %agent% gets replaced with useragent string

So, to test try e.g.:
curl -4 -A "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:89.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/89.0" -m 10 -s https://diagnostic.opendns.com/myip

Anyways, when freenom-script runs curl to get ip it probably works (same as the test).
But the next thing the script does fails: login to freenom.

From man curl:

EXIT CODES
There are a bunch of different error codes and their corresponding error messages that may appear during bad conditions. At the time of this writing, the exit codes are:

<...>

   2      Failed to initialize.

Could be caused by an issue with curl's options or special chars in password for example.
The latter is known to happen with older curl versions (see #25).
Looks like you're running Ubuntu 20.04 (focal) which should have an updated version. Check curl --version to be sure.
If it's older curl try setting freenom_oldcurl_force="1" in freenom.conf.

Also make sure you run latest version of freenom-script ofc.

And lastly running freenom.sh with -debug 9 will show details about what it does.
