Executing one command and then other

[icemagno]

Hi, I trying to do a command sequence:

    Session session = ssh.startSession();
    Session.Command cmd = session.exec("ls -l");
    System.out.println(IOUtils.readFully(cmd.getInputStream()).toString());
    cmd.join(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
    Session.Command cmd2 = session.exec("ls -a");
    System.out.println(IOUtils.readFully(cmd2.getInputStream()).toString());

And I can't because a library limitation:

This session channel is all used up

So I ask what this library is for if it can't remember what the user i doing? Is not so useful if I cannot even change folders, check content and do some action on files ....

1. Please try to be friendly and constructive if you want help regarding your problem.
2. Please have a look at the JavaDoc of Session, which specifies that a Session is used up as soon as you start using it for one thing.

If you want to execute a series of commands, I suggest you either concatenate them (using && or ;), or use the Shell which gives you an interactive process.

Thanks for reply. I can't do such thing because I'm in a web environment and I don't know what the user are doing, so I can't pipe commands ( the user can if he wants, but I will never know). I must keep a connected session to allow the user access the terminal any time he wants. I solved this by using ExpectIT with SSHJ

`

net.sf.expectit expectit-core 0.7.0

`

Now I have a perfect WEB interface for a SSH and can issue very interactive commands like SUDO (with passwords) and reply SO questions like (Yes/No) , (Enter your name) , etc.... http://eic-cefet-rj.github.io/sagitarii/img/ssh-03.png

By the way, I may need your logo or something else to put in system's "Tech Badges" list. http://eic-cefet-rj.github.io/sagitarii/img/login.png So everybody will know the great technologies is making my system possible.

Thanks for your help. (and my apologies if I was rude)

Wow, looks cool! Glad you found a way to make it work. Apologies accepted ;). You could also have a look at a higher level abstraction we built, that allows more protocols (https://github.com/xebialabs/overthere)
