Hello, I am trying to write a python cgi that calls a script over ssh, the problem is the script takes a very long time to execute so Apache makes the CGI time out and I never see any output. The script is set to print a progress report to stdout every 3 seconds but I never see any output until the child process is killed.
Here's what I have in my python script: command = "ssh -l root %s /scripts/xen/xen-create-win-vps1.sh %s" % (host, domuname) output = os.popen(command) for line in output: print line.strip() Here's a copy of the bash script. http://watters.ws/script.txt I also tried using os.spawnv to run ssh in the background and nothing happens. Does anybody know a way to make output show in real time? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
