Provide ability to disable "last version check"

[frayos]

Hello, is it possible in the config to define a variable to avoid checking the "last version" ?

Indeed on some "black site" machines (no internet) this "check" crashes th sas_lsm script with :

./SAS_lsm: line 1252: syntax error near unexpected token `<'
./SAS_lsm: line 1252: ` done < <(ssh ${SSHOPTIONS} ${INST}@${HOST} find ${TIEX} -name "*_${UETYPE}_${ACTION}_*" -print0 | sort -z) ######NEED TO SEE IF SORT IS ON SOLARIS#####'

Thanks ! Younes

Hi Younes,

What Linux distro is this? Are you using userexits? The section of code on line 1252 it is complaining about is in the userexit function. I'm not sure why the version check would cause an error there. The version check is designed to fail gracefully in the case of no internet access.

Hi Younes,

I concur with Greg and am unsure what that may have to do with the version check function. Please do let us know the distro and shell in use on the machine where you ran into that.

If you do want to test removing the version check for whatever reason, you can simply comment out the call to the check_version function inside the initialize function. Looks like in the current master branch that is line 639 of the main _SASlsm script.

Hello, thanks for the feedbacks ! I'm the proxy for a PSD colleague (hocine b.)

RHEL 7.9 sh points to /bin/bash

When he gave the http proxy variable, it just started working

I'll ask to confirm if commenting #639 gives same results ! and or provide bash -x output of the script.

To be noted, customer had DNS resolution so its not really "no internet acces"

let's close, the PSD person went on something else
