Hal9K:

I don't know what's wrong with Expect, but if you change:

$abi->send("$cmd\n") or die "Can't send to expect object: $abi->error(
+)";
[download]

to:

$abi->send("$cmd\n") or die "Can't send to expect object: " . $abi->er
+ror();
[download]

you may get a better error message than:

Can't send to expect object: Expect=GLOB(0x8eb92e8)->error() at /thres
+hNet/bin/xm-test line 41.
[download]

As it stands right now, it's converting $abi into a string, without calling the error() member, so you're not getting a useful error message right now.
