Hi,
Thank you very much for the quick response.
Code is working fine.
Now I am trying to validate that the command is executed successfully.
I have written following script to validate the log file which is created
after running the command.
========================================================
if os.access("C:/Python25/Own.log", os.F_OK):
f = open("C:/Python25/Own.log")
time.sleep(30)
try:
for line in f.readlines():
a=line
if "Request timed out.." not in a:
print("Ping is not successful.")
pLogger.info("Ping is not successful.")
else:
print ("Ping is successful.")
pLogger.info("Ping is successful.")
finally:
f.close()
else:
pLogger.info("File doesn't exist")
=========================================================
But it is not working, even if ping is successfully it is printing "Ping is
not successful.". Can you please point out where I am making mistake.
Thanks,
AD

Hello Everybody,
In Python scripting, how can I execute a command (which can be run from
spcific directory) and then retrieve the result (after executing the command
it give the command is executed successfull or not), so that I can validate
it.
Thanks,
AD
import os
import subprocess
os.chdir('/your/directory')
p = subprocess.Popen("ls -l", shell=True, stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
out = p.stdout.read()
print out

As Sander says, your if/else is backwards. Presumably the message "Request timed
out" is there only
when it's unsuccessful, not when it works.
But you have another, even more subtle problem. If the log file is more than one line,
you're only checking the last one. Unless you know it's the last one that'll contain the
line, you need to move the "in" test inside the for loop.
There are other things to fine-tune, but these are the important ones.
