Using Expect Script for SFTP



   Trying to work with Benefit Focus to send & receive information via
   SFTP. The people there now are clueless and the most they can say is
   things are setup correctly on their side and are you able to get on our
   website at sbsftp.benefitfocus.com
   Which we can do that but do not want this to be a manual process from
   someones pc.
   Additional research has show that their site wants the User Id and
   Password so reading Scott's information I installed Expect. I followed
   the following commands.
   [1]http://www.scottklement.com/expect/
   Downloaded the following two files into /tmp
[2]expect.5.43.tar.Z       13-Aug-2008 00:00  2.5M
[3]tcl.8.4.9.tar.Z         13-Aug-2008 00:00  3.1M

Then did the following:

CALL QP2TERM
$ cd /tmp
$ uncompress tcl.8.4.9.tar.Z
$ uncompress expect.5.43.tar.Z
$ cd /
$ tar xf /tmp/tcl.8.4.9.tar
$ tar xf /tmp/expect.5.43.tar
$ ln -s /qopensys/usr/bin/stty /usr/local/bin/stty
Press F3 to exit PASE.

I'm using the example CLP and when I run
QSH        CMD(&CMD)
&CMD =
          ....5...10...15...20...25...30...35...40...45...50...55...60
     1   'PATH=$PATH:/QOpenSys/usr/bin:/QOpenSys/usr/local/bin && expe'
    61   'ct -f myscript.exp                                          '
I get the following from /tmp/expect.log
qsh: 001-0019 Error found searching for command expect. No such path or director
y.

** Note we are on V7r2 **

Any suggestions would be very helpful.

Thanks
Dan
