Problem running shell command in spawn()
by Mark Reynolds 27 Aug '21

27 Aug '21

This code used to work for a long time, but now it stopped working as expected: let cmd = [ "/bin/sh", "-c", '/usr/bin/echo TEST >> ' + setup_file ]; cockpit.spawn (cmd, { superuser: true, err: "message" }) Now the output file (setup_file) is empty. When I run that command on F33 it also does not write to the file. Ok, so I changed it to just "echo STRING >> /tmp/my_file" which works on the command line, but in Cockpit spawn it still does not write/echo to the file: let cmd = [ '/usr/bin/echo TEST >> ' + setup_file ]; cockpit.spawn (cmd, { superuser: true, err: "message" }) I've tried different variations of this command, but none of them actually write (or echo) to the file whne using spawn(). I also tried "script(), but it didn't help. This used to work until just recently, so I'm not sure what is wrong or what changed in Cockpit/Fedora... Any suggestions would be great. Thanks, Mark -- Directory Server Development Team

CentOS Stream 8 Cockpit version
by Paul Richards 18 Aug '21

18 Aug '21

Hello, I've noticed that the version of Cockpit in CentOS Stream 8 is much newer than other "stable" distros: CentOS Stream 8: 250 Ubuntu 20.04: 215 Debian 11: 239 I know that Cockpit is a RedHat project, so perhaps this isn't too surprising, but is the policy around CentOS Stream updates for Cockpit explicitly documented somewhere? Will CentOS Stream always have a relatively up to date version of Cockpit? Thanks,
