[rancid] Issues with rancid not collecting configs

[Gallardo, Winfred C]

i'm having trouble diagnosing why rancid is having trouble collecting configs on HP procurve 5412.


I get the expected out put when running 

hlogin -c 'show config' xx.xx.xx.xx


i checked my rancid log files and i'm not sure 
what all the lines mean for the errors.

here is a sample.

Trying to get all of the configs.
write(spawn_id=1): broken pipe
    while executing
"send_user -- "$expect_out(buffer)""
    invoked from within
"expect -nobrace -re {^[^
 *]*BL579-DC-Ent-R6-AJ32-1#} { send_user -- "$expect_out(buffer)"
						} -re {^[^
]*BL579-DC-Ent-R6-AJ32-1#.} { send_user ..."
    invoked from within
"expect {
		-re "^\[^\n\r *]*$reprompt"	{ send_user -- "$expect_out(buffer)"
						}
		-re "^\[^\n\r]*$reprompt."	{ send_user -- "$expect_out(buffer)"
..."
    invoked from within
"if [ string match "*\;*" "$command" ] {
	set commands [split $command \;]
	set num_commands [llength $commands]
	# the pager can not be turned off on ..."
    (procedure "run_commands" line 17)
    invoked from within
"run_commands $prompt $command"
    ("foreach" body line 136)



Please let me know what other commands i can try to see where the errors are coming from.

Thanks in advance,
