I have ssh on to a ubuntu box and run the following:
rabbitmq-server –detached
Which I believe should give me the command prompt back and run rabbit in the background, howerver it justs hangs:
Is this a powershell issue?
PowerShell is a component of Microsoft Windows, it has a command-line shell and a scripting environment. So I don't think you question is relative to PowerShell.

My OS is Windows 10 (x64) and I installed both Powershell 7 and cygwin.
Then, I installed "sshpass" using cygwin.
And, here are the cases I am experiencing right now.
From cmd, if I enter "C:\cygwin64\bin\mintty.exe -", cygwin pops up with initial directory "~". Then, if I type "sshpass -p<password> ssh <username>#<host>", it perfectly works smoothly!
From cmd, if I enter "C:\cygwin64\bin\mintty.exe", cygwin pops up with directory "/cygdrive/c/Users/myname". Then, if I type "sshpass -p<password> ssh <username>#<host>", it asks me to type the password. This means that sshpass is not working correctly here.
From powershell, if I type "C:\cygwin64\bin\sshpass.exe -p<password> C:\cygwin64\bin\ssh <username>#<host>", nothing happens.
My questions are the following:
How do I properly run sshpass command in Powershell?
Let's say my ip address is 1.1.1.1 and I am connecting to a server whose ip is 2.2.2.2, and both computers OS systems are Windows. When I connect to the server through ssh, it shows the "cmd" terminal of the server. How can I change it to show "cygwin" terminal when I connect to the server?
I am having very hard time fixing this out.. Thank you very much in advance..
I am not sure i am getting this, anyway, if i understand correctly you have a hard time launching sshpass from powershell.
Try using Start-Process commandlet: (maybe add the full path to ssh in arguments (?))
start-process -filepath C:\cygwin64\bin\sshpass.exe -ArgumentList '-p<password> ssh <username>#<host>' -Wait -NoNewWindow
Anyway instead of reaching linux commands to windows and run it from powershell, why don't you check powershell modules?
ssh using powerShell script by passing the password along with the Commnad
Also, Powershell Remoting towards linux is a thing nowadays, and it runs over ssh (not bash afaik)
I do have following setup:
a win PC with gitlab-runner installed (working)
a powershell script running on the same PC is starting an application
a gitlab server to connect this local PC and starting the powershell script
Now when starting the powershell script directly from the local PC, the application starts and terminates after done - working as expected. When starting the same powershell script with the gitlab server (yml-file) then I can see that the application has been started (new process in taskmanager) but it is not running as well it never terminates.
When manually end the task I see that gitlab terminates again.
Question:
what could be the root cause?
is it possible to run the powershell script with gitlab-runner? I think there is a way with the command "exec". How does the command looks like when calling the powershell script?
is it possible to run the application not in the background in order to see whats going on?
others?
thanks in advance
I think there is a bug with the gitlab runner on windows.
No matter which shell you configure in the config.toml the runner
will always use cmd.exe for an exec local run.
Specify the --shell argument to override the default cmd.exe shell:
> gitlab-runner exec shell your_job --shell pwsh
If you run this locally in your project, it outputs to .builds/, so add this to your .gitignore because git will see it and think you might want to add a submodule.
I'm trying to install IBM Cloud CLI but there is a problem faced me when I do this.
I added the Path to environment variables but it didn't work too !
This happens because the iex (shorthand for Invoke-Expression) command is a Powershell command, but it is entered to Command prompt. The latter is the old command shell that dates back to the MS-DOS days of the 80's.
One can tell the difference from the fact that the window title bar says Command Prompt, not Powershell. Often - not always! - a Powershell session has blue background and command has black.
To run Powershell commands, start a Powershell session either by typing powershell and pressing enter into a command session, or by opening Windows Start menu and typing powershell (followed by enter).
I am exploring docker and I've been using Windows Powershell ISE to run docker commands. I have come across situation where I run certain commands in Powershell but they appear to be stuck, but when I run the same docker command on Command Prompt they work fine. I am using the same machine but different command line tools. Why do certain docker command work in powershell and some don't? The below are just some examples. While most work, some don't appear to be working.
Example 1) docker system prune
In powershell I expected a message like I do in the command prompt below, but it appears to be hanging.
Example 2) docker exec -ti containerName bash
In CMD Prompt, I am able to jump into my running container but not in Powershell
Docker does not support Powershell-ISE:

I have yet another subtle problem on Windows :(
The following one-line perl script doesn't work:
perl -e "system('regedit.exe /s C:\my.reg');"
It really runs regedit.exe tool (I'm sure since I tried to run it w/o "/s" and saw confirmation dialogs), but it doesn't create a key in the registry.
I tried to run
regedit.exe /s C:\my.reg
in from windows shell (cmd.exe) and it works fine.
The original command works fine on Windows XP, but doesn't work on 2008 server.
So I suspect that this is system-related issue.
Are you executing this with an elevated cmd prompt (i.e. admin privileges)? Regedit requires this.
