The Linux I have in this container is as shown below:
root@sbolla-6c7b7589d8-5c2rb:/usr/safenet/lunaclient# uname -a

root@sbolla-6c7b7589d8-5c2rb:/usr/safenet/lunaclient#I am trying to do a simple scp with sshpass command as shown below and running into this error. any ideas really appreciated. Please note that I have tried scp and not cp. Infact this line is in a script, I tried it on the linux command line I got this error. I have also tried escaping the Environment variables with ' and " and \ and all combos, but that doesn't seem to have helped.

sshpass -p "$H_PASSWORD" scp -v $H_USERNAME@${H_HOSTNAME}:server.pem .another thing I have noticed is if I do the env on this container, I see an extra line in the environment variable , could that be an issue. See how this env shows. Note that I have not entered a line on purpose, when I type env command I see line next to the H_HOSTNAME and the H_PARTITION which is weird H_PARTITION=Operator
MYSQL_PORT=tcp://11.123.113.242:3306
LUNAHS=TRUE
H_HOSTNAME=grs-defcon.brilliant.local
ROOT_PORT_443_TCP_PORT=443
MYSQL_PORT_3306_TCP_ADDR=11.456.231.242Looks like 2 shell expansion issues. Try:
sshpass -p "$H_PASSWORD" scp -v $H_USERNAME@${H_HOSTNAME}:server.pem .# sshpass -p '$H_PASSWORD' scp -v $H_USERNAME@$H_HOSTNAME:server.pem .
Executing: cp '--' 'admin@abc-def.brilliant.local' '.'
cp: cannot stat 'admin@abc-def.brilliant.local': No such file or directory
Executing: cp '--' ':server.pem' '.'Your shell variable H_HOSTNAME has some white space at the end. It's causing the scp command to be something like this:
scp -v someuser@somehost :server.pem .Scp interprets this to mean that two local files named someuser@somehost and :server.pem should be copied to the local directory .. It's trying to do a local-to-local copy for each file by invoking the cp program.
