Hello,
I'm using the timeout (GNU coreutils) 8.23 command on RedHat 6.5 Enterprise
server, and it is performing the timeout as planned.
In my scenario, the timeout command allows me to tail a log on my Putty screen
for 2 minutes. Here is the command.
./startup.sh ; timeout 120 tail -f ${LOG_HOME}/tomcat/instance1/catalina.out
Issue - while the log is being tailed on my Putty screen I cannot use my
control keys. For example, control+c does not cancel the log tail.
Note - on my other RedHat 6.5 Enterprise servers this is not an issue but I'm
using timeout (GNU coreutils) 8.4 instead of version 23.
Any suggestions on how to get the control+c to work would be greatly
appreciated.
Regards,
