rdelval edited a comment on issue #64: update thermos_profile cmdline URL: https://github.com/apache/aurora/pull/64#issuecomment-524476788 @rcuza I'm unable to replicate this exact error but I figured out where it comes from. Using `'''` for multi line strings in python means everything (even whitespace) is included as part of the string. So the following happens when setting the variable like that: ``` >>> cmdline = '''cat <<EOF > .thermos_profile ... export RESULT=hello ... EOF''' >>> print(cmdline) cat <<EOF > .thermos_profile export RESULT=hello EOF ``` You can notice that there spaces before export and `EOF` are now included in the string. This unfortunately causes issues because bash is looking for an exact delimiter match of `EOF` to signal the end of the data being passed into the arg. Since there's spaces, bash gets confused. The simple solution to this is to change: ``` setup_env = Process( name = 'setup' cmdline = '''cat <<EOF > .thermos_profile export RESULT=hello EOF''' ) ``` To: ``` setup_env = Process( name = 'setup', cmdline = '''cat <<EOF > .thermos_profile export RESULT=hello EOF''' ) ``` Which will yield the expected results. Notice I also included a comma at the end of name ='setup' (without it the job parsing will fail.) Thanks for pointing this out I can't believe the documentation has been around this long and no one else has hit this. If you could please test my suggestion out and report back if it works for you we'd really appreciate it. Apologies for taking so long to get to testing this, appreciate you taking the time to submit a patch to us! If it does work, do you mind changing up your patch to use that solution?
