storescp output on Ubuntu

[amunaaser]

Hi!
When launching storescp through another application on Windows, a commandline windows starts and all the output activities are displayed there, but when I use the same application on Ubuntu and call storescp the output is not displayed at all:
storescp -v -uf +B -fe .dcm -aet MatlabTestC -od /tmp/fast-storage/DicomDownload/ 104

I tried to start a new terminal with xterm etc but it is not much use:
xterm -e storescp -v -uf +B -fe .dcm -aet MatlabTestC -od /tmp/fast-storage/DicomDownload/ 104

Do you have any suggestions?

Best regards

Unfortunately, you did not tell us how you call storescp from the application. This is certainly different on Windows and Linux, and probably not really related to the DCMTK.

Hi again!

Thank you for the quick reply!

I understand. I thought, I had written, how I call storescp both on Windows and Linux:
Windows: storescp -v -uf +B -fe .dcm -aet MatlabTestC -od /tmp/fast-storage/DicomDownload/ 104

On Linux, I get the output, when I use it like this, but then it gets stuck
Linux: sudo storescp -v -uf +B -fe .dcm -aet MatlabTestC -od /tmp/fast-storage/DicomDownload/ 104

When I add "&", storescp runs but the output is not displayed anymore:
sudo storescp -v -uf +B -fe .dcm -aet MatlabTestC -od /tmp/fast-storage/DicomDownload/ 104 &

That's the reason for my question, i.e. if you have any suggestion for Unix/Ubuntu for starting it in a separate terminal or perhaps redirect the output somehow?

I would suggest to write the log output to file, e.g. using a logger configuration as provided in "etc/filelog.cfg". storescp (and other DCMTK tools) will load und use this configuration file with option --log-config.
