    <p>I have a ant target where I successfully use a sshexec-task to install a server using tomcat on OpenSuse 11.</p> <p>My problem comes when I try to run a script that start the newly installed server. I need to do this as root, so I use a task as this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;sshexec host="${tss.hostname}" username="${username}" password="${password}" trust="true" Command="/usr/local/bin/foo/bar/tomcat/bin/startup.sh" failonerror="false"/&gt; </code></pre> <p>The problem with this is that I need to run the script from the folder where it is located, as it finds CATALINA_HOME and JAVA_HOME from that location. And the path "foo/bar" will change over time so I do not want to set it permanently. I just want to change my running path to the correct one.</p> <p>As I failed to start the server like that, I wanted to investigate a bit and changed the script so I used "CommandResource="cmd.txt" instead of a direct command. I thought I could use this to set CATALINA_HOME before I started the server and go around the problem that way.</p> <p>This is the outcome when using cmd.txt:</p> <pre><code> [sshexec] Connecting to foo-bar:22 [sshexec] cmd : [sshexec] cmd : cd /usr/local/bin/foo/bar/tomcat/bin [sshexec] cmd : pwd [sshexec] /root [sshexec] cmd : echo $PATH [sshexec] /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_27/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/sbin:/root/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/games:/opt/kde3/bin:/usr/lib/mit/bin:/usr/lib/mit/sbin [sshexec] cmd : export CATALINA_HOME=$PATH:/usr/local/bin/tibco/tss/4.5.0/tomcat [sshexec] cmd : echo $PATH [sshexec] /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_27/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/sbin:/root/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/games:/opt/kde3/bin:/usr/lib/mit/bin:/usr/lib/mit/sbin </code></pre> <p>This shows that neither the cd nor export command have any effect.</p> <p>I suspect I need to change the rights for ssh. I have read that I may need to change in .ssh/config. But I do not know how or where...</p> <p>So, to sum this long question up short: </p> <p>What do I need to do to be able to run my startup.sh as root from the correct tomcat/bin folder with a ant script that is run in Jenkins?</p>

    1. COCan you please add `output="sshlog.txt" verbose="true"` to your sshexec and post the contents of _sshlog.txt_?

    2. COAlso I have a creeping suspicion that every line in `CommandResource` file is executed in a separate subshell.

    3. COThanks for the input. I added output="sshlog.txt" verbose="true" to the task and ran it again. Sadly the sshlog.txt are empty. Which is an answer in itself I guess...

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
