Hi,
I’m using a CLI based application of Keeper Security, seems there is some issue in copying/pasting text from the clipboard in Linux, this is tested in both Rocky Linux, and Ubuntu, and in PowerShell in Linux as well.
Can anyone advise if this has to do with the Clipboard of Linux, Windows Terminal, or something else ?!.
The CLI is accessed via Windows Terminal, but this has been attempted form the original VM’s CLI shell as well from within ESXi, seems to me like a Keeper Application issue.
Any thoughts ?!

In PowerShell, ctrl+v is replaced by a right click. Not sure if that helps, but I’m betting Linux has something similar.

Thanks @bensetliff
I’m aware of this, the issue is Keeer does not accept manual paste into the terminal, which why I’m leaning towards Linux Clipboard as having something to do with this problem…

Does ctrl+shift+v work in linux? I’m not as familiar with bash as I ought to be…
Analyzing your screenshot, I’d say you’re probably right…the keeper application isn’t integrating with linux’s clipboard properly…and that’s probably a keeper issue.

Highlighting in linux is enough to put the selection into the clipboard. Right-click will paste.
I would guess you use ctrl-C from the windows side, then right-click to paste in the linux window
On Linux, this module makes use of the xclip or xsel commands, which should come with the os. Otherwise run “sudo apt-get install xclip” or “sudo apt-get install xsel” (Note: xsel does not always seem to work.)
Otherwise on Linux, you will need the qtpy or PyQT5 modules installed.

@keeper-team
I’m afraid neither of these clipboard packages (xclip or xsel) worked, the issue is the same as in the original question…
