There are 2 pi in this setup:
- PI-domo: running domoticz
- PI-pump: controlling a pump with one GPIO
Those pi are far away, but can communicate through network. PI-domo has some passwordless ssh login setup to pi-pump, and contains three scripts:
- pump_on.sh: sends value to gpio with ssh to turn pump on and returns 1
`ssh pi#pi-pump -n "echo 0 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio18/value" && echo 1`
pump_off.sh: sends value to gpio with ssh to turn pump off and returns 0
ssh pi#pi-pump -n "echo 1 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio18/value" && echo 0
pump_status.sh: returns 1 if pump is on, 0 if pump is off.
All three scripts work as expected when launched in bash, but I can not find how to call them with domoticz. I created a virtual switch and set those as script:///.....[on off].sh but domoticz doesn't seem to be running any of them. nor could I find a place to read the status...
Any idea or link to a RECENT (working) tutorial would be welcome!
Found the issue: stupid me.
It turns out domoticz process was running as root and root didn't have the key setup for passwordless ssh.
I know that this is a old thread and it is answered already, but I have stumbled on the same issue and found that online answers lacked detail. So, here it goes:
On PI-domo run
sudo su to become root
Generate a new key using ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "nameofyourkey"
Copy your key to PI-pump by using ssh-copy-id -i /root/.ssh/yourkey.pub pi#pi-pump
ssh to pi-pump to test that ssh agent for root is working, and if all is well exit and go back to become a pi user.
Note 1: Although logging in as root of PI-domo, it is critical that pump_off and pump_status.sh contain pi#pi-pump and not root#pi-pump or this approach will fail.
Note 2: Domoticz log indicates that the above process has some error by outputting Error: Error executing script command (/home/pi/domoticz/scripts/pump_off.sh). returned: 65280. Note the 65280 error in particular

OK so I have paramiko v2.2.1 and I am trying to login to a machine and restart a service. Inside the service scripts it basically starts a process via nohup. However if I allow paramiko to disconnect as soon as it is done the process started terminates with a PIPE signal when it writes to stdout.
If I start the service by ssh'ing into the box and manually starting it there is no issue and it runs in the background fine. Also if I add long sleep 10 before disconnecting (close) paramiko it also seems to work just fine.
The service is started via a init.d script via a line like this:
env LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$bin_path nohup $bin_path/ServerLoop.sh \
"$bin_path/Service service args" "$#" &
Where ServerLoop.sh simply calls the service forever in a loop like this so it will never die:
SERVER=$1
shift
ARGS=$#
logger $ARGS
while [ 1 ]; do
$SERVER $ARGS
logger "$SERVER terminated with exit code: $STATUS. Server has been restarted"
sleep 1
done
I have noticed when I start the service by ssh'ing into the box I get a nohup.out file written to the root. However when I run through paramiko I get no nohup.out written anywhere on the system ... ie this after I manually ssh into the box and start the service:
root#ts4700:/mnt/mc.fw/bin# find / -name "nohup*"
/usr/bin/nohup
/usr/share/man/man1/nohup.1.gz
/nohup.out
And this is after I run through paramiko:
root#ts4700:/mnt/mc.fw/bin# find / -name "nohup*"
/usr/bin/nohup
/usr/share/man/man1/nohup.1.gz
As I understand it nohup will only redirect the output to nohup.out if "If standard output is a terminal" (from the manual), otherwise it thinks it is saving the output to a file so it does not redirect. Hence I tried the following:
In [43]: import paramiko
In [44]: paramiko.__version__
Out[44]: '2.2.1'
In [45]: ssh = paramiko.SSHClient()
In [46]: ssh.set_missing_host_key_policy(AutoAddPolicy())
In [47]: ssh.connect(ip, username='root', password=not_for_so_sorry, look_for_keys=False, allow_agent=False)
In [48]: stdin, stdout, stderr = ssh.exec_command("tty")
In [49]: stdout.read()
Out[49]: 'not a tty\n'
So I am thinking that nohup is not redirecting to nohup.out when I run it through paramiko because tty is not returning a terminal. I don't know why adding a sleep(10) would fix this though as the service if run on the command line is quite verbose.
I have also noticed that if the service is started from a manual ssh its tty in the ps ax output is still set to the ssh tty ... however if the process is started by paramiko its tty in the ps ax output is set to "?" .. since both processes are run through nohup I would have expected this to be the same.
If the problem is that nohup is indeed not redirecting the output to nohup.out because of the tty is there a way to force this to happen or a better way to run this sort of command via paramiko?
Thanks all, any help with this would be great :)
I can run the following command to accomplish what I am trying to do, however I would like to setup entries in my ~/.ssh/config to handle a transparent jump:
ssh -tt login.domain.org gsissh -tt -p 2222 remote.behind.wall.domain.org
Note that the second hop MUST be made with gsissh, some info can be found here: http://toolkit.globus.org/toolkit/docs/5.0/5.0.4/security/openssh/pi/
AFAIK this precludes the standard use of netcat or the -W flag in the ProxyCommand option in the .ssh/config. I think this is because ssh will try to use ssh instead of gsissh on the intermediate machine.
If I put something like this in my .ssh/config it will hop through to the target machine, but when I exit I will land in a shell on the intermediate machine and it borks my ControlMaster setup—the next time I try to ssh to the final destination I end up on the intermediate machine
Host dest
HostName login.domain.org
PermitLocalCommand yes
LocalCommand gsissh -p 2222 remote.behind.wall.domain.org
Also, it seems that trickery using -L or -R is disabled for security reasons.
I would love some help if anybody has any tips.
Thanks
i was created a bash script my_vp.sh that use 2 command:
setterm -cursor off
setterm -powersave off
[...]
#execute video commands
[...]
and is in a computerA
but when i execute it by ssh by another computerB_terminal:
ssh pi#192.168.1.1
execute video commands work correctly in the computerA (the same where is the script)
but the command setterm works in the computerB (the terminal where i execute the ssh command).
somebody can help me with solucione it?
thank you very much!
I am not sure I understood the question:
to execute a local script, but on another machine:
scp /path/to/local/script.bash pi#192.168.1.1:/tmp/copy_of_script.bash
and then, if it's copied correctly, execute it:
ssh pi#192.168.1.1 "chmod +x /tmp/copy_of_script.bash"
ssh pi#192.168.1.1 "bash /tmp/copy_of_script.bash"
to have the remote video (Xwindows, etc) commands appear on the originating machine:
replace : ssh with : ssh -x (to allow X-Forwarding, which will allocate a DISPLAY automatically on the remote machine that will be tunneled back to the originating machine)
for the X-forwarding to work, there are some requirements (usually ok by default, but ymmv) : read more about those requirements in this Unix.se answer
I am testing out OpenMPI, provided and compiled by another user, (I am using soft link to his directories for all bin, include, etc - all the mandatory directories) but I ran into this weird thing:
First of all, if I ran mpirun with -n setting <= 10, I can run this below. testrunmpi.py simply prints out "run." from each core.
# I am in serverA.
bash-3.2$ /home/karl/bin/mpirun -n 10 ./testrunmpi.py
run.
run.
run.
run.
run.
run.
run.
run.
run.
run.
However, when I tried running -n more than 10, I will run into this:
bash-3.2$ /home/karl/bin/mpirun -n 24 ./testrunmpi.py
karl#serverB's password: Could not chdir to home directory /home/karl: No such file or directory
bash: /home/karl/bin/orted: No such file or directory
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
A daemon (pid 19203) died unexpectedly with status 127 while attempting
to launch so we are aborting.
There may be more information reported by the environment (see above).
This may be because the daemon was unable to find all the needed shared
libraries on the remote node. You may set your LD_LIBRARY_PATH to have the
location of the shared libraries on the remote nodes and this will
automatically be forwarded to the remote nodes.

mpirun noticed that the job aborted, but has no info as to the process
that caused that situation.

I see that the work is dispatched to serverB, while I was on serverA. I don't have any account on serverB. But if I invoke mpirun -n <= 10, the work will be on serverA.
This is strange, so I checked out /home/karl/etc/openmpi-default-hostfile, and tried set the following:
serverA slots=24 max_slots=24
serverB slots=0 max_slots=32
But the problem persists and still gives out the same error message above. What must I do in order to have my program run on serverA only?
The default hostfile in Open MPI is system-wide, i.e. its location is determined while the library is being built and installed and there is no user-specific version of it. The actual location can be obtained by running the ompi_info command like this:
$ ompi_info --param orte orte | grep orte_default_hostfile
MCA orte: parameter "orte_default_hostfile" (current value: <LOOK HERE>, data source: default value)
You can override the list of hosts in several different ways. First, you can provide your own hostfile via the -hostfile option to mpirun. If so, you don't have to put hosts with zero slots inside it - simply omit machines that you have no access to. For example:
localhost slots=10 max_slots=10
serverA slots=24 max_slots=24
You can also change the path to the default hostfile by setting the orte_default_hostfile MCA parameter:
$ mpirun --mca orte_default_hostfile /path/to/your/hostfile -n 10 executable
Instead of passing each time the --mca option, you can set the value in an exported environment variable called OMPI_MCA_orte_default_hostfile. This could be set in your shell's dot-rc file, e.g. in .bashrc if using Bash.
You can also specify the list of nodes directly via the -H (or -host) option.
I am writing a file syncing application where I collect event from the filesystem whenever the file is modified and than later I copy it over to remote share via rsync over ssh. In my setup I have a slot which is connected to a QTimer. Each 5 seconds I pick a file from a sqlite db for synchronization and start a QProcess::start with the following parameters
/usr/bin/rsync -a /aufs/another-test-folder/testfile286.txt --rsh="ssh -p 8023" user#myserver.de:/home/neox/another-test-folder/testfile286.txt --rsync-path="mkdir -p /home/neox/another-test-folder && rsync"
I have at most 2 rsync processes running in parallel. This results in a process tree:
MyApp
\_rsync
| \_ssh
|_rsync
\_ssh
The problem is that sometimes the application hangs and the ps says that ssh processes have gone zombie. First I have tried to kill MyApp with SIGKILL but no luck. Than I moved on to kill rsync and ssh but still no luck. The whole tree hangs. And if I try to start the daemon from another console or even try to ssh to another box, I can't. My idea here is that somewhere ssh blocks some IO resources. Any idea how to solve this?
P.S. This happens randomly and not often
