Darren Jones commented on WFLY-2950:
------------------------------------

Thanks!

I'm also having trouble calling jboss-cli.bat from another script due to the [N]/[T]/[P] prompt - a file redirect does not allow me to automatically give it an answer (e.g. jboss-cli.bat < my-input.txt) where my-input.txt contains the characters T<newline>).

Do you think it would be possible to add a command-line switch to temporarily accept any certificates? (If so, please let me know whether I should raise that as a new Jira ticket).

> When using the https management interface from jboss-cli, commands passed with a command line option (such as --command=:shutdown) are not executed if the server certificate is unrecognised - even if accepting the certificate [T]emporarily or [P]ermenantly.
> It appears to be due to the CommandContextImpl.handleSSLFailure() method, which calls error("Unable to connect..."). The error() method sets the exitCode to 1. So, when CliLauncher.processCommands() subsequently runs, it sees that the cmdCtx.exitCode is 1 and ignores any commands.
> I guess the handleSSLFailure needs to reset the exitCode to 0 if the user chooses [T] or [P].
