Re: [Expectperl-discuss] Strange time out and hard close

[<ex...@ih...>]

Ok the real problem seems to start with this error message.
The time it occurs seems to be hidden by the fact that
the hard_close has some timeouts.

Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at /usr/btools/perl/lib/site_perl/5.6.1/Expect.pm line 1388

I still don't know what to make of this???
The spawn seems to trigger this problem.
