When starting hostapd, it says: |
| 23 |
* Caching service dependencies ... [ ok ] |
| 24 |
* Bringing up interface wlan0 |
| 25 |
* Running preup ... |
| 26 |
* Starting wpa_supplicant on wlan0 ... |
| 27 |
* start-stop-daemon: /sbin/wpa_supplicant does not exist <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<!!!! [ !! ] |
| 28 |
* ERROR: net.wlan0 failed to start |
| 29 |
* ERROR: cannot start hostapd as net.wlan0 would not start |
