Hello,
I'm using plink as follows:
PLINK.EXE -ssh -P 22 user@host -pw passwd -m MK.ini
When I try to run a script with commands that go into menu level does not recognize. Ex:
/system upgrade
:put [get [find version=6.42.10] status]
If you do in a single line it works. Ex:
/system upgrade;:put [get [find version=6.42.10] status]
Would anyone know the reason?
Plink script

Re: Plink script
In your example, “;” is still required at the end of the first line. It stands for “New Line.”
Re: Plink script
:put [system identity get name] works for me
Re: Plink script
Not true anymore "New Line" works nice. No need for ; anymore.In your example, “;” is still required at the end of the first line. It stands for “New Line.”
Only if you like more commands on one line.

The end of command line is represented by the token “;” or NEWLINE. Sometimes “;” or NEWLINE is not required to end the command line.

I completely miss read the OP issue! Thought he was trying to issue 2 commands when I responded.Not true anymore "New Line" works nice. No need for ; anymore.In your example, “;” is still required at the end of the first line. It stands for “New Line.”

Re: Plink script
My intention is to first enter the menu level
/system upgrade
to execute later
:put [get [find version=6.42.10] status]
as it would in a mikrotik script
/system upgrade
to execute later
:put [get [find version=6.42.10] status]

Re: Plink script
This does not work for me, it gives red error after = due to the extra space after =./system upgrade;:put [get [find version = 6.42.10] status]
If I do remove the space, I do get this error:
no such item
What are you trying to do?
Test what version you have?
See if there are newer version?
If you like OS version?
Code: Select all
:put [/system resource get version]Re: Plink script
Sorry, the spaces were a copy and paste error. They should not really exist.
If I run direct on the terminal it works, the problem is when I try to do this through plink.
This is part of a mass update script where I need to know if the download has been completed to reboot.
