Is it regular or occurs time to time?
Can you build it from source?

yep it is regular.
okay will report after testing.

niksingh710 · 2024-01-02T18:09:20Z

building from source runs the ui
but gives error in terminal saying

Wifi interface is blocked due to iw is not installed. Please check all the dependencies before installation.

Having the same crash despite iw being installed
edit: only happens when I set the network as "Open"
edit2: deleting the config file fixed the issue

lakinduakash · 2024-01-08T13:03:22Z

What's the path of that config file? @awsms

bbaa-bbaa · 2024-01-15T08:30:49Z

What's the path of that config file? @awsms

/etc/create_ap.conf I think.

Archlinux's package manager(pacman) does not automatically merge configuration files, and newer code will get null pointer errors when reading configuration options that don't exist in older versions.

same issue

iw installed.
before upgrade, everything is OK, config file not changed

morgan-greywolf · 2024-01-23T19:46:17Z

Is it regular or occurs time to time? Can you build it from source?

This is also segfaulting for me on arch linux under wayland. If I build either the master or lakinduakash-patch-3 branches from source I get the segfault, but when I build lakinduakash-patch-2 from source I get the GUI.

lakinduakash · 2024-01-23T20:03:08Z

As a temporary solution delete /etc/create_ap.conf and re-install the package

That worked. Thanks.

max-ishere · 2024-02-25T17:04:27Z

Had the same issue on the AUR package and deleting /etc/create_ap.conf solved it. Wasnt expecting to have to delete /etc files to fix an issue though...

Flashwalker · 2024-02-28T22:13:08Z

It still broken without rm /etc/create_ap.conf.

Arch linux package is managed by @yochananmarqos
Please check this - @yochananmarqos

yochananmarqos · 2024-03-09T01:28:05Z

@lakinduakash I just read the whole thread, this is obviously not a packaging issue. I cannot reproduce the issue, therefore I cannot help.

lakinduakash · 2024-03-09T21:46:08Z

From @bbaa-bbaa It seems like that issue is from the Arch Linux package manager which does not update the file.
Relevant command from the Makefile is install -CDm644 create_ap.conf $(DESTDIR)/etc/create_ap.conf that seems fine. The C flag should update the file if it is different from the current target.

What is your distro?

yochananmarqos · 2024-03-09T22:14:29Z

@lakinduakash

It seems like that issue is from the Arch Linux package manager which does not update the file.

Yes, it does. However, since it's a user configurable file, it is backed up and a pacnew is created if it's modified.

lakinduakash · 2024-03-09T22:48:56Z

Thanks for the explanation @yochananmarqos .
To fix this I think we need to create a conf file at runtime and use the original conf file as a template. Right now all the user configurations are saved in the same configuration file.

yochananmarqos · 2024-03-09T22:53:40Z

@awsms

Having the same crash despite iw being installed

No, you're not. Just because it segfauted doesn't mean it's the same crash. You've hijacked this closed issue and now we're even on to a different subject. This is quite a mess.

Maybe we should check for null pointers.
I think if(values->ieee80211ax&&strcmp(values->ieee80211ax,"1") is enough

Yup, simply adding IEEE80211AX to my original conf fixes this issue.
