dhcpcd - issue

[linux newbie]

Hi,

 

wpa_supplicant service is started in init.rc and my target network module gets associated with AP.

On the Android GUI, once I enabed WIFI, the SSID is shown on the screen, but it says "unable to obtain IP address" and logcat shows dhcp failed.

 

On command prompt, if I execute, dhcpcd eth1 it can able to fetch IP address.

 

Can anyone let me know, how to debug this issue?

 

Thanks

Hi,

I also observed that if I enable dhcpcd as service in init.rc as
service dhcpcd /system/bin/dhcpcd eth1

I can able to observe that after enabling WIFI in GUI, it can able to get connected to SSID.

But, there are lot of dhcpcd process spawned if I do "ps".

Any suggestions.

Thanks

You should ask dhcpcd do not fork itself.
Add -dd option to solve the issue.

service dhcpcd /system/bin/dhcpcd -dd eth1
