I am trying to embed expect in my bash script to perform some tasks
USER="username"
PASS="password"
NAMES=`cat full_list`
for i in $NAMES
do
echo $i
[Code]....
The script initially reads a files containing a list of rpm's on each line and then spawns the rpm2ipc command which uploads the particular rpm to a repository. During this process it tries to enter the credentials, where it is failing.
I am trying to make a script that can be used to check server load on a remote server and produces sound on our local machine, when server load exceeds a particular limit.1. I want to execute command uptime or uptime | awk '{print$10}'on the remote server and store the result in a variable(say x), and later use it in the bash script.
Bash Part
#!/bin/bash
x=$(/root/Desktop/exp)
[code]...
I am writing an expect script. At a certain point there is a rule that produces this debugging output:
Code:
expect: does " Address or name of remote host [x.x.x.x]? " (spawn_id exp8) match glob pattern " Address or name of remote host [x.x.x.x]? "? no This just times out When I use -exact for the expect keyword it does work What am I doing wrong? THe first should also match in my opinion because it is equal as well. Even if I remove the I still have the same issue if I try without -exact. I don't understand. I tried removing the but still got the same.
I have a script which uses a function and also uses expect.
If I have #!/bin/bash as the first line, the function is recognised. The expect calls are not, failing first with spawn.
If I have #!/bin/expect as the first line, the expect and spawn work fine. The function is not recognised.
My friend Google brings up examples with both these lines one after another in script files, just like Im doing. Except for me it doesnt appear to work.
Where am I making my beginners mistake in not understanding how this works ?
I'm trying to Use Expect to automate a curl function. basically I don't want to type enter for my script to run. Can anyone point me to a good Expect tutorial?

I am literally bashing (pun intended) my head against the keyboard at this minute! I am trying to automate a script via cron for my centos server. The script requires two user inputs (e.g. read VAR). However, I do not want to edit the original file, as I would like to be able to run it normally as well. It is also made by someone else, and so if an update becomes available, it will be easier to install. My idea is that i create a cron script, to run this second script from, and the only way i could find was with expect. However I am having troubles, In order to test out expect, I have created the following:
test.sh
[Code]...
It looks as if the second input is completely ignored ?! what i am doing wrong? or if there is a more elegant solution to running a script from a script with user inputs?
i was able to input it directly from the script using this code
Code:
#!/usr/bin/expect -f
set USER "bibingeorge"

i am working on some kind of PBX and i have list of telephone numbers inside a file, i have to insert these numbers into the correct command and then telnet to a remote server and execute these commands. i can read the telephone numbers and insert them into the command with no problem, but when i try to insert these commands into the send i face problem. here is the basic code
#!/bin/bash
read msisdn < input
string="ZZZZ:MSISDN=$msisdn;"
[code]....
i can make external loop inside the Bash which read the input file and issue the command and then telnet and execute, but this will make the script connects and disconnects again for each line which cause high load on that server and hardwar problem. i am wondering if there is an option inside the expect interperter which makes the send read directly from a file... somthing like this:
expect "<"
send "input-filename
"
expect "<"
expect eof

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a file server running Ubuntu Server. No monitor or input hooked up...I just ssh into it for maintanance. I use it to store all of my music and video files. I was watching Hulu at work today and thought it would be nice if I could somehow stream or play my files from my file server while I was at work.
I have apache set up so I can serve websites from it so I was thinking if I could some how select the file to play and it play it in an embedded player, that would be fine. I'd like it to play music and videos.
Is there any way of going about this? I have minimal HTML experience, but I have extensive C/C++ experience and server experience. So I'm comfortable using some open source libraries to accomplish this.

Back in my Windows days I used Power Point but now that I am a Linux guy I use OpenOffice Impress instead. First, even in power point if I embedded sound files I had to make sure they were .wav files, and in this format they grew very large. I have been told that I can embed a .wav file in Impress, but there is a limit of 100k on the file size. Also there is a place where you can change this limitation, but I can't find where to change it. Does any one know where this setting is?
Next, let me tell you what I am trying to do and maybe someone has a better way of doing it. I have slides in my presentation where I display text and have sound files that read the text that is displayed. I have a couple of ways to do this, but both ways are just inserting sound files into the slide. All this does is point to the sound file and then plays it. This works find until I want to transfer it to another computer. To get the presentation to run on another computer I would have to re-insert the sound file so the pointer was right.
So this means I need to not only copy the presentation over but the sound files also. My main question: Is there a better way to do this? Even if I have to use a different program if Impress is unable to embed sound files. I believe that both Power Point and Impress both fall short in this area. I am trying to stay away from developing a program to do this. There must be something out here in the Linux world that would fit the bill?

I'm using expect to log into a remote server and run a script. I want to able to have expect edit the output from that script, on the remote server, in VI. Has anyone ever done this before, it seems as though the expect interpreter has nothing to expect once VI is started, the file pointer starts at the beginning of the line, and expect usually reads the characters before the pointer.
