PPM Support Tip: ksc_simple_respond timeout if command takes longer than 60 seconds - Micro Focus Community

mike_se · ‎2014-02-22

When using ksc_simple_respond in 9.22, timeout if command takes longer than 60 seconds.

After upgrading from 8.0 to 9.22, having issues with timeouts where there are references to "ksc_simple_respond" Special Command in Object Types.

The command is:
- ksc_simple_respond "sqlplus [DEST_ENV.ENV.DB_USERNAME]@[DEST_ENV.ENV.DB_CONNECT_STRING] @$driver" -hide "Enter password:" "[DEST_ENV.ENV.DB_PASSWORD]"

The command has a timeout of 7200 secs. If the script returns the succesful when completing under 60 seconds. However, if it is increased takes longer than 60 seconds, a timeout is applied prematurely.

Defect QCCR1L54037

Workaround:
Use "echo $" to alleviate timeout issues.

Example:
-ksc_simple_respond "sqlplus [DEST_ENV.ENV.DB_USERNAME]@[DEST_ENV.ENV.DB_CONNECT_STRING] @$driver" -hide "Enter password:" "[DEST_ENV.ENV.DB_PASSWORD]" "$" "echo $"
