 Posted: Wed Jan 13, 2016 6:57 pm Post subject: wpa_supplicant - problem |
 |
|
Hello, I just installed gentoo, I can not configure the wifi, I installed wpa_supplicant, WPA-tool and DHCP. In/etc/conf.d/net:
| Code: | modules_wlp2s0="wpa_supplicant"
config_wlp2s0="dhcp" |
I first tried to set up by hand, then I heard with wpa_cli, this is the final configuration:
| Code: | ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=wheel
update_config=1
network={
ssid="-Vodafone"
psk="my_password_wifi"
proto=RSN
key_mgmt=WPA-EAP
pairwise=CCMP
auth_alg=OPEN
eap=MD5
} |
I put the daemon startup, when I try to reboot I get this error:
| Code: | gentoo@GentOscar ~ $ sudo /etc/init.d/net.wlp2s0 restart
Password:
* Bringing up interface wlp2s0
* Starting wpa_supplicant on wlp2s0 ...
Successfully initialized wpa_supplicant
ctrl_iface exists and seems to be in use - cannot override it
Delete '/var/run/wpa_supplicant/wlp2s0' manually if it is not used anymore
Failed to initialize control interface 'DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=wheel'.
You may have another wpa_supplicant process already running or the file was
left by an unclean termination of wpa_supplicant in which case you will need
to manually remove this file before starting wpa_supplicant again.
nl80211: deinit ifname=wlp2s0 disabled_11b_rates=0
* start-stop-daemon: failed to start `/usr/sbin/wpa_supplicant' $
[ !! ]
* ERROR: net.wlp2s0 failed to start |
iwconfig:
| Code: |
gentoo@GentOscar ~ $ sudo iwconfig
enp3s0 no wireless extensions.
wlp2s0 no wireless extensions.
sit0 no wireless extensions.
lo no wireless extensions.

do dhcpcd or wpa_supplicant or wicd or NetworkManager appear in a run level?

first of all thank you for responding, here you go:
| Code: | binfmt | boot
bootmisc | boot
devfs | sysinit
dmesg | sysinit
fsck | boot
hostname | boot
hwclock | boot
keymaps | boot
killprocs | shutdown
kmod-static-nodes | sysinit
local | default
localmount | boot
loopback | boot
modules | boot
mount-ro | shutdown
mtab | boot
net.wlp2s0 | default
netmount | default
procfs | boot
root | boot
savecache | shutdown
swap | boot
swapfiles | boot
sysctl | boot
sysfs | sysinit
termencoding | boot
tmpfiles.dev | sysinit
tmpfiles.setup | boot
udev | sysinit
urandom | boot
wpa_supplicant | default |
if you can serve the output of iwconfig is that of arch (dualboot):
| Code: | wlp2s0 IEEE 802.11bgn ESSID:"Vodafone-"
Mode:Managed Frequency:2.437 GHz Access Point: 00:24:89:7F:91:D8
Bit Rate=65 Mb/s Tx-Power=15 dBm
Retry short limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
Encryption key:off
Power Management:off
Link Quality=60/70 Signal level=-50 dBm
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:16 Missed beacon:0
sit0 no wireless extensions.
lo no wireless extensions. |

oscarandrea ...
you have both net.wlp2s0 and wpa_supplicant in the default runlevel ... hence the "you may have another wpa_supplicant process already running" error.
As you are using netifrc you can remove 'wpa_supplicant' as netifrc is configured to start it ...
| Code: | | # rc-update del wpa_supplicant default |
... that should be all that is required to resolve the issue.
best ... khay |

hello, thanks for your help, of course I had not paid attention to the error message, I am not English and I did not understand what you said 
ok, I removed the daemon startup, now what do I do?
thanks of patience |

in the installed gentoo system or in the chroot, run: | Code: | rc-update add net.wlp2s0 default
rc-update del wpa_supplicant
reboot |
I do not understand | Code: | | still I can not login the same |
Do you have a separate login problem from the wireless problem?

hwclock | boot
keymaps | boot
killprocs | shutdown
kmod-static-nodes | sysinit
local | default
localmount | boot

try key_mgmt=WPA-PSK instead of key_mgmt=WPA-EAP in wpa_supplicant.conf or if you know based on access point scan or administrator information that WPA-PSK is correct specify the eap= that is appropriate
does the desired access point appear?

does not work: / being new gentoo I would not have missed something that you give for sure I created symlinks with:
| Code: | | ln -s /etc/init.d/net.lo /etc/init.d/net.wlp2s0 |
more info on the network and on current demon:
| Code: | * Unmounting network filesystems ... $
[ ok ]
* Bringing down interface wlp2s0
* Stopping udhcpc on wlp2s0 ... $

Please provide some data in pastebins: | Code: | emerge wgetpaste
lspci -k | wgetpaste -t
dmesg | wgetpaste -t
zcat /proc/config.gz | wgetpaste -t |
/etc/conf.d/net example: | Quote: | dns_servers="192.168.2.1 8.8.8.8"
modules_wlan0="wpa_supplicant"
#wpa_supplicant_wlan0="-Dnl80211"
wpa_supplicant_wlan0="-Dwext"
wpa_timeout_wlan0=30
#iwconfig_wlan0_mode="Managed"
#config_wlan0="192.168.2.3 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.2.255"
#routes_wlan0="default gw 192.168.2.1"
dhcpcd_wlan0="-t 10"
config_wlan0="dhcp"
#
#config_eth0="ifconfig"
#config_eth0="192.168.2.203 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.2.255"
#routes_eth0="default gw 192.168.2.1"
dhcpcd_eth0="-t 10"
config_eth0="dhcp" |
Try one then the other /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf example: | Quote: | ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=0
update_config=1
network={
ssid="SSID"
psk="PASSKEY"
proto=RSN
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
pairwise=CCMP
auth_alg=OPEN
} |
