Re: [Fab-user] Remote bash script wont run via Fabric

[Colin Wood]

Wow thanks for the many responses. Yea I did some echo statments, and found out that one domain could start up fine but the other didnt. I saw something called cronolog and I think that is what was causing an issue. Once I removed it from the bash script it started up. The syntax was like ./startWebLog | cronolog /some/log/Y-M-D-{$domain}.log

Once I removed that it worked fine. I did try the different pty settings and it didnt seem to matter.

Looks like my hunch was right: if you look at the ticket I linked
previously I've been taking notes. It's clear that with pty=False,
this problem goes away; and it's also clear that the same problem
occurs with regular ssh and its -t/-T options (so it's not
Fabric-specific.) It's not clear *why* this behavior occurs,
unfortunately.

I'll document the "init scripts seem to misbehave with pty=True" issue
in an FAQ unless something comes up that offers a different solution.
