claude-code - 💡(How to fix) Fix [Bug] Sudo commands fail without password prompt [1 comments, 2 participants]

TL;DR

The issue might be related to the terminal's behavior when handling sudo commands, and adjusting the terminal settings or using a different approach to run sudo commands could resolve the issue.

Guidance

• Check the terminal settings to see if there's an option to enable password prompts for sudo commands.
• Try running the command with sudo -S to force sudo to read the password from standard input.
• Verify that the sudoers file is properly configured to allow password prompts.
• Consider using a different terminal emulator to see if the issue is specific to the current terminal.

Example

No code snippet is provided as it's not clearly supported by the issue.

Notes

The issue might be specific to the vte-based terminal, and trying a different terminal emulator could help identify if the issue is terminal-specific.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Try using sudo -S to force sudo to read the password from standard input, as this might help resolve the issue without requiring significant changes to the terminal settings or configuration.
