Trouble calling 'expect' from bash
I have written a small expect script which I want to call from
another bash script. I have set up the bash script to call the expect script like this: #! /bin/bash .. .. . /usr/local/bin/expect-script .. .. Unfortunately, I keep getting the error message: "spawn: command not found, couldn't read file "Password:" " etc. The expect script works perfectly when initiated from the command line, so somehow trying to call it from a bash script is causing a problem. I suspect that the initiating line #! /usr/bin/expect in the expect script is not being executed properly to call the expect program. I have tried to include the expect statements in the bash script but get the same or similar message. I somehow need to invoke 'expect' and input these commands from bash. Is there a way to do this? |
I see the mistake; shouldn't have called the expect as source.
Works fine. |
