Well I tried a lot of different things, but for some reason switching
the first two items to use single quotes instead of double quotes got it
working:
let cmd = [
- "/bin/sh",
- "-c",
+ '/bin/sh', '-c',
'/usr/bin/echo -e "' +
setup_inf + '" >> ' + setup_file
];

This code used to work for a long time, but now it stopped working as
expected:
let cmd = [

"-c",
'/usr/bin/echo TEST >> ' + setup_file

cockpit.spawn (cmd, { superuser: true, err: "message" })
Now the output file (setup_file) is empty.
When I run that command on F33 it also does not write to the file.
Ok, so I changed it to just "echo STRING >> /tmp/my_file" which works
on the command line, but in Cockpit spawn it still does not write/echo
to the file:
let cmd = [
'/usr/bin/echo TEST >> ' + setup_file
];
cockpit.spawn (cmd, { superuser: true, err: "message" })
I've tried different variations of this command, but none of them
actually write (or echo) to the file whne using spawn(). I also tried
"script(), but it didn't help. This used to work until just recently,
so I'm not sure what is wrong or what changed in Cockpit/Fedora...
Any suggestions would be great.
Thanks,
Mark
