Hi, I am logging to a remote session using telnet. I am calling a command to run an exe. This exe sometimes runs fast and at times take a couple of minutes depending on the objects.
The problem that I am facing is: While creating the telnet object, I specify the time out. If the exe that am running is taking more time than that specified, it is exiting. If I don't specify the timeout, it exits in 10 sec. Below is my code snippet: ********************************************************************* my $telnet = Net::Telnet->new(HOST => "$SERVER", TIMEOUT => 120) or die $!; $telnet->login($USER,$USER); $telnet->cmd("cd patches/$PATCHID"); $telnet->cmd("buildforms >>$FRLLOG"); ********************************************************************* What is the solution? Is there a way that I don't specify the time out value and let it run until the exe completes its execution?
