Shell Command Deployment Times Out After the su Command Is Executed to Switch the User

Symptoms

When the shell command sudo su – test && echo hello is deployed, the progress is stuck in deploying state until timeout occurs.

Cause Analysis

After the su command is executed to switch to another user, the operation window of the test user is displayed and the deployment of subsequent commands stops. The commands can continue to be deployed only after the test user exits. However, the test user cannot exit during application deployment. As a result, the deployment times out.

Solution

Change the command to sudo -u test /bin/bash -c "shell command".
