Yes, you should. On standard systems /usr/local and /usr/local/bin (if present) are not writeable by regular users.
Perhaps this admin can also tell you why expect would search stty in /usr/local/bin! This should only happen when the expect binary has been compiled from source at your location.

Also on other flavors it resides in /usr/bin/stty.

I wonder about the file data/test.sh that your ssh command is requesting be run on the target machine. Is it possible that the error message you are seeing returned is coming from the remote session rather than a local message?
Good point!

Ok, it seems to be solved now, but just to clarify some things:
I didnt have expect installed and i asked my system admin to install expect for me, so he probably used my username or installed it just for me as these are very large machines (this is a very large company) with tens of thousands of users.

Wouldn't it have been better convincing your admin to set up passwordless (public-key) ssh acces for your userid on the source machine to "user" on "machine2"?

Yes, of course, but the permissions in that folder (777) don't allow ssh to be used...
