maven/ant and ssh/exec - missing or ill-formed stdout

P

pjh1

Hi!

I've got a slight problem with maven/ant using ssh to execute a script
on a remote unix host.

The command is fired off ok but the stdout from the command is ill
formed and missing.
I have created a simple maven plugin to demonstrate my problem:

when I run

maven phil:test -Dcmd="echo -n hello;echo -n ' 'there; echo '
'you"
All the output is typically one line (as expected):

but if I run
maven phil:test -Dcmd="echo -n hello;sleep 1;echo -n ' 'there;
echo ' 'you"
All the output from 'there' onwards is on a second line.

Also, I keep getting spurious characters (normally a suit from a set of
cards!) on new lines of output.

Saying that, it has now all started being displayed on separate lines
with or without the sleep statement - and I'm getting a whole selection
of playing card suit characters!

If I run the commands on the remote host (without ssh) it works fine.


Can anyone shed any light on this?

Thanks

Philip
