Hi,

I am new to using minicom. I want how to write a expect script for minicom login? I wrote a code but its not acting what iam expecting. here I have my code:

Code:

#!/usr/bin/expect

set fd [ open /dev/ttyUSB1 { RDWR NONBLOCK } ]

fconfigure $fd

spawn -open $fd

  spawn minicom
expect “enter:”
send "\n"
send "\n"


expect \
"Valiant login: " {
exp_send "username\n"
exp_continue
} "Password: " {
exp_send "password\n"
exp_continue
}

Response for above code:

Code:

spawn [open ...]
spawn minicom

but here I want output like:
it should show my login and password message which is sent from my hardware but it is jumping without showing it directly to my command line and existing from that session (login) . I dont want to exit from the login session

Is their any problem in my code: please do suggest me thank you

Cant accept reserved characters in your command

Unknown OAM Command:"$$config/oam"



==============================
My commands are:


#!/usr/local/bin/expect —f
log_file -noappend logfile_telnet
set timeout 2
set user "username"
set password "password"
spawn minicom
expect "enter:"
send ""

expect "login:\r"
send "$user\r "
expect "Password:\r"
send "$password\r"
expect "$ " #passing command after login
send "\$\$config/oam\r"


when i do a spawn telnet instead of this the script runs fine........

thank you
