Because you missed to set parameter opt_flag of the Run statement to $STDOUT_CHILD

The author of helpfile example to StdoutRead did this job already. Just look and adapt for your need.

dont help

where my mistake?

[AutoBert]

Don't know if or where are your misatake(s). Run this script:

$user = "root"
$password = ""
$host = "5.0.0.1"
$port = "22"

$puty_exe = @ScriptDir & "\putty.exe"; putty salve local folder script
If Not FileExists($puty_exe) Then
    ConsoleWrite('putty not found' @CRLF)
    Exit
EndIf

$iPID = Run(@ComSpec & " /C " & $puty_exe & " -ssh -l " & $user & " " & $host & " p " & $port & " -pw " & $password, @ScriptDir@SW_MAXIMIZE, $STDERR_CHILD + $STDOUT_CHILD)
;change back to @SW_HIDE after script is successfully tested
$i = 0
While 1
    $sOutput = StdoutRead($iPID)
    If @error Then ; Exit the loop if the process closes or StdoutRead returns an error.
        ExitLoop
    EndIf
    ConsoleWrite("Stdout Read" & $i & ": " & $sOutput&@CRLF)
WEnd
$i = 0
While 1
    $i += 1
    $sOutput = StderrRead($iPID)
    If @error Then ; Exit the loop if the process closes or StderrRead returns an error.
        ExitLoop
    EndIf
    ConsoleWrite("Stderr Read" & $i & ": " & $sOutput&@CRLF)
WEnd
ConsoleWrite('Finished'&@CRLF)

and post output of the Sciteconsole.

"I try many variants" and "don't help" aren't very informative. Please describe what's going wrong. What are (if any) your error messages? Does it work if you do it manually through the commandline?

One suggestion I would offer is to store the command you're executing in a temporary variable and writing it to the console (ConsoleWrite()) to see if you're actually executing the thing that you meant to execute.

Another suggestion, maybe that's the whole thing, is that the -p parameter for putty requires the dash, so change " p " & $port to " -p " & $port.

you have erorr in code after i run your code i see this

$PID = Run(@ComSpec & " /C "&$puty_exe&" -ssh -l " & $user & " " & $host & " p " & $port & " -pw " & $password, @ScriptDir^ ERROR

but nothing change i cant read console in autoit

SadBunny

I dont have erorr massage but autoit nothing return in  StdoutRead after I run putty

with  dash  -p I have error

I run another program call vmrun.exe (from VMware) and I can read console

If you can just run putty.exe from autoit maybe I can see simple things

i'm not sure you can read the putty output... If my memory is good, there is an UDF to work with PLINK

[Skysnake]

Try reading both the standard AND error streams and see if you get any?

 

[Jos]

Why would Putty have a STDOUT and STDERR data stream as it is a regular Windows program?
 

Jos

[water]

Use PLink. That's the command line tool for Putty. You'll find a lot of examples on the forum. 

Edited August 4, 2016 by water

@Jos, yes: Pscp and plink.  

3.7 The PuTTY command line

       PuTTY can be made to do various things without user intervention
       by supplying command-line arguments (e.g., from a command prompt
       window, or a Windows shortcut).

Look for the verbose mode. putty command line

GUI Putty should have a tick box for a log file. It may help to force putty into verbose mode.  See if you can log the output to a file.  Read the file afterwards.

 

[Jos]

Understood but I was referring to putty.exe used by the OP.

[JustSomeone]

It does not work with putty, only with plink. I've tried running it with putty for ages and failed. Since i don't have code in hand, i will describe how it works - open putty, save some session, then launch the plink proccess with the same session name. Write to sdin, wait some time , close proccess and then read stdout and stderr.

#include <constants.au3> ; not sure where was the child stuff stored
$somepid = run("c:\path\to\plink.exe -batch NameOfYourStoredConnection ","c:\path\to\", @sw_show $STDIN_CHILD + $STDOUT_CHILD + $STDERR_CHILD)
StdinWrite($somepid,"do stuff here")
sleep(100)
ProccessClose($somepid)
ProccessWaitClose($somepid)
$Output = StdoutRead($somepid)
$Error = StderrRead($somepid)
consolewrite("output - " & $Output & @CRLF)
consolewrite("error (if any) - " & $Error & @CRLF)
exit

Something like this (quick writed in box, hope you get the idea)

Edit : typos, i need english dictionary

try to use plink.exe instead putty.exe

#include <AutoItConstants.au3>

$user = "root"
$password = "pass"
$host = "1.1.1.1"
$port = "22"

$puty_exe = @ScriptDir & "\plink.exe"; putty salve local folder script
If Not FileExists($puty_exe) Then
    ConsoleWrite('putty not found' &@CRLF)
    Exit
EndIf

$iPID = Run(@ComSpec & " /C " & $puty_exe & " -ssh -l " & $user & " " & $host & " p " & $port & " -pw " & $password, @ScriptDir,@SW_MAXIMIZE, $STDERR_CHILD + $STDOUT_CHILD)
;change back to @SW_HIDE after script is successfully tested
$i = 0
While 1
    $sOutput = StdoutRead($iPID)
    If @error Then ; Exit the loop if the process closes or StdoutRead returns an error.
        ExitLoop
    EndIf
    ConsoleWrite("Stdout Read" & $i & ": " & $sOutput&@CRLF)
WEnd
$i = 0
While 1
    $i += 1
    $sOutput = StderrRead($iPID)
    If @error Then ; Exit the loop if the process closes or StderrRead returns an error.
        ExitLoop
    EndIf
    ConsoleWrite("Stderr Read" & $i & ": " & $sOutput&@CRLF)
WEnd
ConsoleWrite('Finished'&@CRLF)

I get this text in autoit console

Stdout Read0: root@1.1.1.1's password: 

but why i cant login in on server ?

when I use this in putty.exe all is ok I login on server

when I mannually run plink.exe password requires too

 

I cant use StoredConnection like in JustSomeone example

[Jos]

You are not having the correct parameter for port: change the " p " to " -P ".

$iPID = Run(@ComSpec & " /C " & $puty_exe & " " & $host & " -ssh -l " & $user & " -pw " & $password & " -P " & $port , @ScriptDir,@SW_MAXIMIZE, $STDERR_CHILD + $STDOUT_CHILD + $STDIN_CHILD )
