Raspberry Pi 4
Re: Raspberry Pi 4
What it's doing is not recognizing the wifi supplicant file and doing the auto IP crap... Now i gotta figure out how that works.

Re: Raspberry Pi 4
Humm - I'm sure that worked for me, but I'll check it..
In the mean time the v4.0 images are still on the alternate mirror: http://download.pistar.uk just in case you need them.
Re: Raspberry Pi 4
I've had the same experience with a ZUMspot + RPi 3A+. I tried using both the method of copying the 4.0.0-RC4 backup file to the root directory, and booting up a pure 4.1 image. No matter what I have tried, it won't connect to my WiFi. I had no problem connecting to my WiFi with the 4.0.0-RC4 version I backed up. I even tried the method suggested by Larry, KF7L, of adding scan_ssid=1 to the /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf. Nothing has worked.

Re: Raspberry Pi 4
OK, booting up my Zero here, its just done the first boot and filesystem expansion - seeing where its getting stuck... should have answers pretty soon......
Re: Raspberry Pi 4
Pi-Star v4.1.0-RC1 on Pi Zero, dropped the wpa_supplicant.conf into /boot....
Boots first time, re-sizes the disk to fill the volume, reboots, imports the WPA config, reboots and connects to the wifi, I watched this on the console of the Pi, it did exactly what I expected and connected properly.
The wpa_supplicant.conf I happened to use was generated by the tool on the pistar.uk website, that tool has not changed at all, the format is identical to the old ones - it works exactly as expected.
About to test a Pi3B+, formatting the card etc to make sure.

Re: Raspberry Pi 4
Pi3B+ behaved the exact same way, boot, expanded the volume, reboot, import WPA config, reboot, connected to WiFi.MW0MWZ wrote: ↑Wed Jun 26, 2019 11:12 pm Pi-Star v4.1.0-RC1 on Pi Zero, dropped the wpa_supplicant.conf into /boot....

Is it possible you guys are not waiting long enough for it to go through that process? I have to say with my SanDisk 16GB SD-Cards it doesn't take that long...
Re: Raspberry Pi 4
I'm sure I waited long enough. I must've tried this 10 times using the two methods I described above: 1) using a pure new image, connecting via Auto AP, adding the wireless network, and then rebooting; or, 2) copying the backup file into the root directory of a pure new image, which didn't connect to my wireless network, but instead booted to Auto AP. With both methods, I was never able to get it to connect to my wireless network.
But I didn't try the method of dropping the wpa_supplicant.conf into the root directory. I'll give that a try and see what happens, but maybe not until later this evening. I've been fighting with this for hours now and am a bit worn out at the moment. Time for a break and dinner.
ADDITION: I've tried with two different SanDisk Ultra 16GB cards, one I had been using successfully in the hotspot previously, and the other a new one.

Re: Raspberry Pi 4
Yeah. I've waited up to 15 minutes. I've done everything the way we are supposed to.
I got one pi zero to finally connect to wifi. The other two still won't. I'm still trying.

Re: Raspberry Pi 4
Did you try anything different with that one? I'm burning a fresh image with the wpa_supplicant.conf file copied to the root directory right now, but I'm willing to try anything!

Re: Raspberry Pi 4
Okay, tried this method, but still didn't work. Bypasses connecting to my wireless network and goes into Auto AP mode. If I look at the Configuration page in the Wireless Configuration section and open Configure WiFi, I can see my wireless network entered as Network 0, but it won't connect.
FYI, network name and password copied and pasted from a password manager to eliminate the chance of typos.
I'm giving up for now.
