Tee doesn't write all displayed data into text file
"Debain 9 - LXDE"

I execute follow line in the bash terminal:
/ts3/server/ts3server_startscript.sh start createinifile=1 | tee -a /ts3/server/key.txt


The displayed output looks like follow:
Quote:
Starting the TeamSpeak 3 server
------------------------------------------------------------------
I M P O R T A N T
------------------------------------------------------------------
Server Query Admin Account created
loginname= "serveradmin", password= "xxx"
------------------------------------------------------------------

ServerAdmin privilege key created, please use it to gain
serveradmin rights for your virtualserver. please
also check the doc/privilegekey_guide.txt for details.

token=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
------------------------------------------------------------------
TeamSpeak 3 server started, for details please view the log file

My key.txt file looks like follow:
Quote:
Starting the TeamSpeak 3 server
TeamSpeak 3 server started, for details please view the log file
How can i save the whole displayed text in my file?
Why does tee not redirect the whole text?

The complete output gets now written into the key.txt file. Thats good so far. Thank you!


Follow is the complete code block:
Code:
       # ts3 Server Starten & config erstellen
        /ts3/server/ts3server_startscript.sh start createinifile=1 2>&1 | tee -a /ts3/server/key.txt
        sleep 3s
        /ts3/server/ts3server_startscript.sh stop
         sleep 3s

But the script hangs now. Follow gets written on the display but after it hangs. (maybe the sleep command ? Edit: tested .... its not the sleep command)

if you run the 'start' part with or without ...| tee ... does it "hang"?
if you run the 'stop' part, does it "hang"?
The presence of the .. 2>&1 | tee.. shouldn't make the script "hang"...

/ts3/server/ts3server_startscript.sh start createinifile=1 | tee -a /ts3/server/key.txt Doesn't hang.
/ts3/server/ts3server_startscript.sh start createinifile=1 Doesn't hang.
/ts3/server/ts3server_startscript.sh start createinifile=1 2>&1 /ts3/server/key.txt Doesn't hang. (No key.txt file gets createt)
/ts3/server/ts3server_startscript.sh start createinifile=1 2>&1 | tee -a /ts3/server/key.txt Does hang, the script doesn't continue after the output (see last post)

I don't need to create log files for the 'stop' parameter. But i tested it for you. It works fine with the stop parameter:
./ts3server_startscript.sh stop 2>&1 | tee -a ./test.txt

Edit:

This code works. It saves the key in the text. After that shows the key with cat.
It's not the best solution but it works.

Code:
/ts3/server/ts3server_startscript.sh start createinifile=1 2> /ts3/server/key.txt
sleep 3
cat /ts3/server/key.txt
 /ts3/server/ts3server_startscript.sh stop


Thank you for the help!
