Hi all, First post to this mailing list, please forgive any faux pas I may unintentionally make.
I'm having trouble getting Fabric working with Force10 devices, and I was hoping you could help. Google has failed me! It would seem that the connection does not complete to Fabric's standards, yet using Paramiko alone works fine - see here: http://pastebin.com/yJgh26KS. I would prefer to use Fabric for many reasons, mostly Force10 is not the only brand of hardware that it will be interfacing with. Here is an example of the problem: user@host:~/$ cat fabfile.py #!/usr/bin/env python > from fabric.api import run, env > env.user = 'admin' > env.hosts = ['10.1.1.1'] > env.passwords = {'10.1.1.1':'password'} > def uptime(): > run("show version") > > user@host:~/$ fab uptime > [10.1.1.1] Executing task 'uptime' > [10.1.1.1] run: show version > Traceback (most recent call last): > File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/fabric/main.py", line 739, > in main > *args, **kwargs > File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/fabric/tasks.py", line 317, > in execute > multiprocessing > File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/fabric/tasks.py", line 213, > in _execute > return task.run(*args, **kwargs) > File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/fabric/tasks.py", line 123, > in run > return self.wrapped(*args, **kwargs) > File "/home/james/projects/robot3/test/fabfile.py", line 9, in uptime > run("show version") > File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/fabric/network.py", line > 535, in host_prompting_wrapper > return func(*args, **kwargs) > File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/fabric/operations.py", line > 1015, in run > warn_only=warn_only, stdout=stdout, stderr=stderr, timeout=timeout) > File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/fabric/operations.py", line > 891, in _run_command > stderr=stderr, timeout=timeout) > File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/fabric/operations.py", line > 752, in _execute > channel.exec_command(command=command) > File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/paramiko/channel.py", line > 218, in exec_command > self._wait_for_event() > File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/paramiko/channel.py", line > 1122, in _wait_for_event > raise e > paramiko.SSHException: Channel closed. > Disconnecting from 10.1.1.1... done. user@host:~/$ fab -V > Fabric 1.6.1 > Paramiko 1.10.1 > user@host:~/$ python --version > Python 2.7.3 user@host:~/$ uname -a > Linux host 3.2.0-24-generic #39-Ubuntu SMP Mon May 21 16:52:17 UTC 2012 > x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux It's worth noting that there is a long pause (timeout, I've tried increasing it) before the traceback. I've tried connecting to a Force10 E600i, an S25N, S50V, S50N, S25P and a S4810, the problem is the same across the board. Just using SSH works fine, there's a pastebin of a verbose SSH session into one here: http://pastebin.com/c3RVBHE5 I've compared the verbose SSH log from connecting to a Ubuntu box, to connecting to a Force10, there aren't many differences, especially not ones that leaped out at me as being a good investigation. I did notice that it identifies itself as "[email protected]", though. I've tried different values for the following in different combinations, to no avail: * env.use_shell * env.use_ssh_config * env.forward_agent * env.linewise * fab --no-keys Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions? Thanks in advance for your time and suggestions, James
