Privilege 5 access show running-config not working

[BrianPersaud]

Hi All

I have show running-config working with privPrivilege 5 5 on all of our switches except one particular IOS version.  Wanted to know if anyone encountered this issue as well.  When I do the show run view full the output is blank.

Here is the output of the commands:

switch1#show running-config view full
switch1#show running-config
switch1#

username test5 privilege 5 secret 5 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

privilege exec level 5 show running-config view full
privilege exec level 5 show running-config view
privilege exec level 5 show running-config
privilege exec level 5 show

I was facing the same issue myself.  It was the file command that fixed it for me.  

This was what I was getting:

But when I ran the file command from a level 15 user it worked after that.  

I had to use the file command to make it work.   I was using CAT9K_IOSXE version 17.06.05 on a C9300-48P switch.
