Rclone: pipe configuration password - inappropriate ioctl for device

Created on 4 Apr 2017  路  3Comments  路  Source: rclone/rclone

Can anyone help me please?
I'm trying to pipe the configuration password from a file to rclone.

What is your rclone version (eg output from rclone -V)
rclone v1.36

Which OS you are using and how many bits (eg Windows 7, 64 bit)
Linux 4.8.0-36-generic #36~16.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Sun Feb 5 09:39:57 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Which cloud storage system are you using? (eg Google Drive)
DropBox / GoogleDrive / AmazonDrive / OneDrive / Yandex

The command you were trying to run (eg rclone copy /tmp remote:tmp)
cat rclone_passphrase | rclone -v sync .DropBox/ DropBox:

A log from the command with the -vv flag (eg output from rclone -vv copy /tmp remote:tmp)

You can always export RCLONE_CONFIG_PASS=<rclone_passphrase>

This is a bug in the golang.org/x/crypto/ssh/terminal library I think... - I have reported it as such here: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/19909

@azureblaze work-around is a good one though.

This will be in the latest beta and in v1.42
