LoG File Error Posted by ksrra (ksrra), 15 October 2004 I am also new to the Expect environment ..The purpose of the script that i have written is to telnet to a switch/router , execute certain commands & capture the logs . This worked perfectly fine when i ran the script on the router , but on the switch , every thing works fine , but the logs are not created , when i open the log file it gives me either an error msg saying "line too large " while opening the file or the file would contain only junk characters.Whats going wrong Any help would be appreciated thanks in Advance KSRRA Posted by admin (Graham Ellis), 15 October 2004 Can you post a few lines of code to illustrate the problem??Posted by ksrra (ksrra), 15 October 2004 #!/usr/local/bin/expectset name [lindex $argv 0] set user [lindex $argv 1] set pd [lindex $argv 2] log_user 1 log_file -noappend sw-op spawn telnet $name expect "User ID:" send $user\n expect "Enter Password:" send $pd\n expect "Next Command:" send "sh cards" interact Posted by admin (Graham Ellis), 15 October 2004 Ah - are you opening the log file in another application and having tgrouble there? Any chance that you switch is generating new line character delimited responses, and you're opening the log files on a Windows box to look at them?Posted by ksrra (ksrra), 15 October 2004 S , the switch does generate the new line character deliminated responses, but iam not opening in a windows box ,I am using the ssh shell , I connect to the switch & also open the log file there itself .Posted by admin (Graham Ellis), 15 October 2004 OK ... if you're getting the problem examining the output after the script has completed on a Linux box (have I understood that right?), then have a look at the output file with something like od that has no ourput line limit. That way you'll get at least a clue that will point you towards the problemThis page is a thread posted to the opentalk forum
