I want to ssh to one of the linux servers and then run some commands. Below is the ruby script.
require 'socket'
require 'rubygems'
require 'net/ssh'
#hostname = "hostname"
#username = "user"
#password = "pass"
#cmd = "ls -alt"
begin
ssh = Net::SSH.start(#hostname, #username, :password => #password)
res = ssh.exec!(#cmd)
ssh.close
puts res
rescue
puts "Unable to connect to #{#hostname} using #{#username}/#{#password}"
end
It gives me the correct output but before giving the output it prints the following warning message:
ruby ssh.rb

I did some research and found this https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-7183 but did not understand the solution. Can somebody please guide me on this?
Thanks.

My Ruby on Rails application remotely starts some scripts on a distant SuSe server (SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 15 SP2). It relies on the net-ssh gem which is declared in the Gemfile: gem 'net-ssh'.
The script is triggerd remotely through the following block:
Net::SSH.start(remote_host, remote_user, password: remote_password) do |ssh|
feed_back = ssh.exec!("#{event.statement}")
end
This works as expected as long as long as the Rails server runs on Windows Server 2016, which is my DEV environment. But when I deploy to the Validation environment, which is SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 15 SP2, I get this error message:
Errno::ENOTTY in myController#myMethod
Inappropriate ioctl for device
On another hand, issuing the SSH request through the command line - from SUSE to SUSE - works as expected too. Reading around I did not find a relevant parameter for the Net::SSH module to solve this.
Your suggestions are welcome!
I finally found out that the message refers to the operating mode of SSH: it requires a sort of terminal emulation - so called pty - wrapped into a SSH chanel.
So I implemented it this way:
Net::SSH.start(remote_host, remote_user, password: remote_password) do |session|
session.open_channel do |channel|
channel.request_pty do |ch, success|
raise "Error requesting pty" unless success
puts "------------ pty successfully obtained"
end
channel.exec "#{#task.statement}" do |ch, success|
abort "could not execute command" unless success
channel.on_data do |ch, data|
puts "------------ got stdout: #{data}"
#task.update_attribute(:return_value, data)
end
channel.on_extended_data do |ch, type, data|
puts "------------ got stderr: #{data}"
end
channel.on_close do |ch|
puts "------------ channel is closing!"
end
end
end
### Wait until the session closes
session.loop
end
This solved my issue.
Note:
The answer proposed above was only a part of the solution. The same error occured again with this source code when deploying to the production server.
The issue appears to be the password to the SSH target: I retyped it by hand instead of doing the usual copy/paste from MS Excel, and the SSH connection is now successful!
As the error raised is not a simple "connection refused", I suspect that the password string had a specific character encoding, or an unexpected ending character.
As the first proposed solution provides a working example, I leave it there.
I have a script like
OptionParser.new do |opts|
opt.on("-h","--help","help") do
puts opts
end
end.parse!
But whenever I call rails runner my_script.rb --help it shows me help for the rails runner and not my script. Is there a way that I can prevent rails runner from swallowing up this option?
I am afraid you cannot do this with runner - runner first searches for its own options and in case of --help or -h it prints the help and exits before even checking whether your script exists or not:
# Railites: lib/rails/commands/runner
opts.on("-h", "--help",
"Show this help message.") { $stdout.puts opts; exit }
You can however get around this by simply not using runner at all and writing pure ruby script:
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
require 'optparse'
environment = 'development'
OptionParser.new do |opts|
opt.on("-e", "--environment") do |v|
environment = v
end
opt.on("-h","--help","help") do
puts opts
end
end.parse!
# RAILS_ENV is used by environment.rb file to load correct configuration
ENV['RAILS_ENV'] = environment

I am trying to connect to the XMLRPC API of a dokuwiki website.
I am successfully doing that from my own laptop, with a SSL connection, however, when I try to do it from my production server (which hosts both the wiki and the rails app from which the ruby code is executed), I run into a
Runtime Error
Wrong size. Was 163, should be 113
Here's how I initialize the connection :
#wiki = ::XMLRPC::Client.new3(
host: "wiki.example.com",
path: "/lib/exe/xmlrpc.php",
use_ssl: true)
# Temp Hack because SSL Fails
#wiki.instance_variable_get(:#http).instance_variable_set(:#verify_mode, OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE)
end
#authenticated = false
authenticate!
end
def authenticate!
# Fails at below line :
#authenticated = #wiki.call("dokuwiki.login", ENV['WIKI_USER'], ENV['WIKI_PASSWORD'])
Rails.logger.info (#authenticated ? "Authenticated on Wiki !" : "Authentication failed on wiki !")
end
I've read many posts saying that there is a bug in the XMLRPC lib of Ruby. I was running ruby 2.1.5pxx on my laptop and ruby 1.9.xx at my server so I did a rvm install 2.1.5, yet the problem is still here
(btw, I assumed it was enough to do a rvm use 2.1.5 and then touch restart to restart my rails server, but how can I check which version of ruby it's using ?)
What is wrong ?
EDIT
On my laptop, I am running ruby 2.1.5p273 (2014-11-13 revision 48405) [x64-mingw32]
On my production server, I am running ruby-2.1.5 [ i686 ]
I tried another library, libxml-xmlrpc, and I get the following error when running the same command:
Net::HTTPBadResponse: wrong status line: "<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC \"-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN\">"
But again, the same code is running fine with the default ruby xmlrpc client on my Windows + rubyx64 2.1.5, so I really don't get it!
Edit2 : I tried adding
#wiki.http_header_extra = { "accept-encoding" => "identity" }
But then I get a
Authorization failed. HTTP-Error: 401 Unauthorized
The first call #wiki.call("dokuwiki.login", "myUsr", "myPwd") worked, but apparently it failed to authenticate me (Of course I am still using the same login information that should work)
EDIT 3
After investigation, a successful login from any other computer than localhost will set a cookie like
#cookie="DokuWiki=[small string] ; [very big string]
Whereas if I do it on localhost :
I will write [...] for random strings
#cookie="[small string 2]=deleted; DokuWiki=[small string]; [very big string]"
So I have an extra variable info stored in my cookie, which is "[small string 2]=deleted;
I believe this is what makes my authentication fails. Anyone knows what this is ???
So this localhost connection was messing up with the cookie. Apparently, even the ruby library doesn't know why, and the "Wrong size" comes from this unexpected string [random string]=deleted added at the beginning of the cookie.
Unless someone can explain WHY such a string is added, I will accept my solution of simply adding
#wiki.http_header_extra = { "accept-encoding" => "identity" }
which removes the "Wrong size" error, then
if /deleted/.match(#wiki.cookie)
#wiki.cookie = #wiki.cookie.gsub(/.*deleted; /, '')
end
To remove the beginning of the cookie
I'm unable to import a key file. I'm using ruby 1.9.3 and ruby-gpgme
https://github.com/ueno/ruby-gpgme
require "gpgme"
begin
key = GPGME::Key.import(File.open("private.key"), {:password => "redacted"})
rescue GPGME::Error => g
puts g.inspect
puts g.message
puts g.code
puts g.source
end
Output
Inappropriate ioctl for device
More info:
/usr/local/opt/rbenv/versions/1.9.3-p392/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/gpgme-2.0.2/lib/gpgme/ctx.rb:43:in new': Inappropriate ioctl for device (GPGME::Error)

from gpgme.rb:17:in `'
Here is the ctx.rb file, but I don't get what could be causing the issue...
https://github.com/ueno/ruby-gpgme/blob/master/lib/gpgme/ctx.rb
The error was a result of some issue with gpgme. So I reinstalled gpgme. I used "brew gpgme". now it seems to be working.
I would like to connect to a remote computer via another using ruby.
This scheme is the following :
Local -> proxy -> remote
I have this code which is doing the work for a direct access :
require 'net/ssh'
Net::SSH.start(remote_host, remote_user) do |ssh|
puts ssh.exec!'hostname'
end
However, when I try with the proxy, the command 'hostname' is executed and correct, but then the code freezes, same if I call ssh.close.
Here is the code :
require 'net/ssh'
require 'net/ssh/proxy/command'
proxy_cmd = Net::SSH::Proxy::Command.new('ssh proxy_user#proxy_host nc %h %p')
Net::SSH.start(remote_host, remote_user, :proxy => proxy) do |ssh|
puts ssh.exec!'hostname'
end
The loggin is done without password thanks to a rsa key. And the proxycommand is working (I was using it in bash before)
Would someone knows what I am doing wrong ?
Thank you very much for your interest,
EDIT : here is the last line in the logs, it blocks there :
I, [2013-10-16T23:01:19.304778 #3785] INFO -- net.ssh.connection.session[4555128]: closing remaining channels (0 open)
I've just bumped in the same issue - command line ssh was working and net/ssh was hanging on me when using proxycommand.
Debuging net/ssh brought me as far as: https://github.com/net-ssh/net-ssh/blob/master/lib/net/ssh/transport/session.rb#L113 and the whole thing was hanging on the .close call of the socket.
I'm not sure what caused this, but adding timeout to nc command seems to have solved it:
ProxyCommand ssh proxy_server#proxy_server nc -q 1 %h %p
