"unable to ask for SMS password" when tty is missing

[chilek]

I've configured mbank-cli to use mobile app authorization and registered its instance using:

mbank-cli register-device

When I launch mbank-cli manually it does its job as it should, but when it is launched from cronie I've got following output:

mbank-cli: unable to ask for SMS password

Quite strange, because I don't event use sms password for authorization! What's going on?

As summary:

1. When we launch script manually we don't have any interaction needs:

$ ./mbank-cli activate-profile business
$

2. When the same command is launched from cronie we get:

mbank-cli: unable to ask for SMS password

as report from STDERR.

I've added --verbose command line parameter to mbank-cli launch from cronie. I'm waiting for new reports.

There's a sanity check that prevents logging in if stdin is not a tty.
This made sense back when SMS 2FA whas the only option, because without tty there would be no way to complete the login process.

Delete this line a temporary work-around:

mbank-cli/mbank-cli

Line 1391 in f3971e0

_ask_for_sms_password('2006-07-30', 1, 0);
