Decryption of what I do / what I want:
Remotely run script on our servers (from Ubuntu 14.04, Python 2.7.6, I would like execute scripts on Ubuntu 12.04 & Ubuntu 14.04). This script will mount encrypted volumes and set correct hostname and confirm that servers are in staging environment.
What I did:
I created EXPECT script (scripts/auto_mounth.sh - Thank to this I am able to run interactive script what will automatically type mount partion's Password, call the hostname and type it and confirm that servers are in staging environment
I created FABRIC function
a. In this function I set env.user & env.password
b. This function runs update & upgrade of OS, and copy and run EXPECT script (for mount encrypted volume)
import os import sys import time import boto import deployment import getpass import sys env.user = 'my_user' env.password = 'my_sudo_pass" def staging_auto_mount(): # install expect sudo('apt-get update', pty=False) sudo('apt-get -y dist-upgrade', pty=False) sudo('apt-get -y autoclean', pty=False) sudo('apt-get -y install expect', pty=False) # auto mount EBS volume sudo('mkdir -p /scripts/', pty=False) put('scripts/auto_mount.sh', '/scripts/', use_sudo=True, mode=0755) run('/scripts/auto_mount.sh') sudo('rm -rf /scripts/')I created BASH script ( /home/scripts/staging_server01.sh ) - I just put in this script command for run FABric function
cd /scripts/ && /usr/local/bin/fab staging_auto_mount -H XXX.xxx.XXX.xxx
My issue is following:
When I run it manually everything works fine and I can run just BASH Script (ad 3.) like
/home/scripts/staging_server01.sh
Or I can run FABric function
cd /scripts/ && /usr/local/bin/fab staging_auto_mount -H XXX.xxx.XXX.xxx
But when I put it into crontab I have problem
How I set crontab job, I tried several things
08 07 * * * cd /scripts/ && /usr/local/bin/fab staging_auto_mount -H XXX.xxx.XXX.xxx --password='my_SUDO_PASS'
08 07 * * * cd /scripts/ && /usr/local/bin/fab staging_auto_mount -H XXX.xxx.XXX.xxx
08 07 * * * /home/scripts/staging_server01.sh
(on my local environment I use same user with same sudo permission like on staging servers. Both users have same PASS for my testing. I also tried run commands in crontab job like specific user)
In log I see this:
/usr/lib/python2.7/getpass.py:83: GetPassWarning: Can not control echo on the terminal.
passwd = fallback_getpass(prompt, stream)
Warning: Password input may be echoed.
I was thinking to use SSL and run via SSL remote commands, but we often recovery servers, so I would have to very often generate new keys. So this is not way.
I did some investigate and I rewrote my FABric function and I am stuck on this too. and honestly, I have with code bellow much bigger problem [I am not able to create directory & copy file (permission issue, or log told me that directory is already exists) neither when I ran it manually or via crontab]
import os
import sys
import time
import boto
import deployment
import getpass
import sys
import shutil
import os.path
env.user = 'my_user'
env.password = 'my_sudo_pass'
path = "/home/scripts/"
def staging_auto_mount():
# install expect
os.system("sudo -p " + "env.password" + " apt-get update")
os.system("sudo -p " + "env.password" + " apt-get -y dist-upgrade")
os.system("sudo -p " + "env.password" + " apt-get -y autoclean")
os.system("sudo -p " + "env.password" + " apt-get -y install expect")
via crontab I can get this error

About the error above I tried to set specific NOPASSWORD permission in visudo, but the issue still existed
I will be very grateful for any help
