For some unfathomably reason amtape "hangs" when forked from a Java program.
I've written a Java program that goes through vaulted tapes and forks amtape (using Runtime.getRuntime().exec(()), and when a non-existant tape label is asked for, amtape "hangs". I cannot figure out why or how to get amtape to just exit with an error (which I can then handle). This is with Amanda 3.5.1 on a Ubuntu 18.04 system. (The Java version is OpenJDK 11.0.13, in case that matters.) -- Robert Heller -- Cell: 413-658-7953 GV: 978-633-5364 Deepwoods Software -- Custom Software Services http://www.deepsoft.com/ -- Linux Administration Services hel...@deepsoft.com -- Webhosting Services
