ssh command hangs with sudo user executing the command.

Question

Hello ,

following is my simple deployment step in pipelines. i have also disabled password prompt for this command in visudo file.

- pipe: atlassian/ssh-run:0.1.4

variables:

SSH_USER: 'appuser'

SERVER: $DEV_SERVER

MODE: 'command'

DEBUG: 'true'

COMMAND: 'sudo pm2 restart app.js'

this hangs at the following line in the console.

ssh -A -tt -i /root/.ssh/pipelines_id -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -p 22 appuser@<ip-address> sudo pm2 restart app.js

looks like something going with ==> "sudo" .

thanks

thanks for the reply,

as i mentioned in my first message that i have disable password prompt for running this command ==> pm2 restart app.js in visudo file.  i have verified this manually also.

looks like some other issue.

thanks

Ok, does your your user requires a sudo password to run sudo commands? If so, this might be the reason the pipe hangs, basically waiting for password input.
