Cisco Prime cli template for wireless controller; interactive questions/response not working

[Nick Shelley]

Hey Peeps,

So I'm running a fully patched version of Prime 3.2.2.  I'm trying to run a cli template for a wireless controller to download a file to it (there's no pre-created template to do it).  So when I get to the interactive part, the template barfs.  Here's what I got:

transfer download serverip 192.1.1.100
transfer download filename login.tar
transfer download datatype webauthbundle
transfer download path /Users/
transfer download mode sftp
transfer download username me
transfer download password cookies
transfer download start<IQ>(y/N)<R>y

I've tried may permutations of the interactive question, but none work.  Here's what I get back on the job error report when I do the above:

Error occured while executing the command transfer download start(y/N)y.Command Output : transfer download start(y/N)y
Incorrect usage. Use the '?' or key to list commands.

I know the controller cli is more funky than regular ios and I'm wondering if it's expecting something more/else?  Also, what directory is the rendered data to be sent to the device located in, or how do I debug/tshoot?  I think it might help to see what Prime is actually sending to the controller.  

Any help or pointers are appreciated!!!

So I decided to try the multicommand method instead and that worked.  I don't know why I didn't try it to begin with... Anyway, this is what worked:

transfer download serverip 192.1.1.100
transfer download filename login.tar
transfer download datatype webauthbundle
transfer download path /to/file
transfer download mode sftp
transfer download username me_again
transfer download password eatcookies
<MLTCMD>
transfer download start
y
</MLTCMD>

I hope this is helpful to anyone else screwing around with Cisco wireless controllers & Prime.
