[solved] tprocess under linux

[cappe]

hello,
  I have to execute the following instructions in tprocess: I manually write it like this:

sudo su
command

How can I run this batch inside a TProcess?

Thank you

P.S. I tried to write this way but it does not work 'sudo su -c "command"', but it does not work.

Why do you need both sudo and su ? Just for the shell? Sudo has -s that maybe can be used to combine this.

I haven't tested, but I think something like this could work:

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1. Runcommand('/bin/sh',['-c','echo ' + sPass  + ' | sudo -S  "su -c command"'],outputstr,[postderrtooutput]);

if you don't need password for sudo you can simplify to

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1. Runcommand('sudo',['"su -c command"'],outputstr,[postderrtooutput]);

or even

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1. Runcommand('sudo',['-c','command'],outputstr,[postderrtooutput]);

there is the password and it does not work.

I'm a beginner with linux and the command to run, I install it with sudo insmod, so it needs to root.
The first example gives me the password and does not execute the command

Even launching the script written in runcommand from shell teminal does not work.

Alternatives.

Dou you need to enter the password?

I remember something about the program "expect" to automate login.

I need the password.

Can you give me an example?

Did you try this: http://wiki.freepascal.org/Executing_External_Programs#Redirecting_input_and_output_and_running_under_root ?

It works. I had made a mistake.
