Bug Description
When running in a shell that was started by the "su" command, sqlci displays no banner or prompt and appears hung, although it is not. This is caused by a bug in Linux that doesn't set the stdout permissions correctly after the su command, but most other programs don't seem to be affected by this bug.
sudo su - trafodion
sqlci
# shows no prompt
For a more detailed explanation of the Linux bug, see the first answer to this question: http://
This is listed as a problem in our release notes. The recommended workaround is
sudo su - trafodion
sqlci | cat
# this shows the prompt
Dave George knows how to fix this and has agreed to do the fix, but I don't think he has a LaunchPad user id yet.
