From: Nathan Halterman Date: 2008-11-05T03:29:36+09:00 Subject: Trying to Use "request_pty" Channel Never Closes I'm trying to interact with a RF Terminal application. But each time I run this, it returns nothing from stdout, and just hangs irb. I've been banging my head on this one for a couple days, because it seems right, but nothing comes back from the server. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. :) [code] def test_rf(run_this) Net::SSH.start('xx.xx.xx.xx', 'userid', :password => "password") do |session| session.open_channel do |channel| channel.request_pty(:term => 'xterm') do |ch, success| raise "could not request pty!" unless success channel.send_data "2\n" # tell the shell to exit end puts "shell was started successfully!" channel.send_data "2\n" # tell the shell to exit sleep 3 channel.send_data "1\n" # tell the shell to exit sleep 2 channel.send_data "Canada6-gen\t" channel.send_data "Canada6-gen\t" channel.send_data "\n" channel.send_data "0" channel.send_data "2\n" channel.send_data "0\n" channel.on_data do |ch, data| puts "got data: #{data.inspect}" end channel.on_close do puts "shell terminated" end end session.loop end end #test_rf [/code] -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
