network_manager::dbus_api:ERROR

[Bucknalla]

Hi,

I'm having an issue trying to run the wifi-connect script on my RPi 3 B (v1.2).

[network_manager::dbus_api:ERROR] org.freedesktop.NetworkManager::AddAndActivateConnection method call failed on /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager Error: Creating the captive portal failed caused by: D-Bus failure: org.freedesktop.NetworkManager::AddAndActivateConnection method call failed on /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager caused by: D-Bus failure: Method call failed after 10 retries

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Alex

Hey Alex, can you please share the Dockerfile for the application container please? Something is going wrong with NetworkManager...

Hi,

Here's the Dockerfile associated with my issue - I haven't changed it since cloning the resin-wifi-connect repo.

FROM resin/%%RESIN_MACHINE_NAME%%-debian

ENV INITSYSTEM on

RUN apt-get update \
    && apt-get install -y dnsmasq wireless-tools \
    && apt-get clean \
    && rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*

WORKDIR /usr/src/app

RUN curl https://api.github.com/repos/resin-io/resin-wifi-connect/releases/latest -s \
    | grep -hoP 'browser_download_url": "\K.*%%RESIN_ARCH%%\.tar\.gz' \
    | xargs -n1 curl -Ls \
    | tar -xvz -C /usr/src/app/

COPY scripts/start.sh .

CMD ["bash", "start.sh"]

I could not reproduce the error. I thought it could be a separate instance of wifi-connect running, but that gives a different sort of error. Is the start script a modified version of the one we provide?

[Bucknalla]

No, I just cloned the repo and pushed it to my device. I don't think that I did anything other than that? I'll try to do a fresh clone & push and see if that fixes anything.

I had to purge openresolv and dhcpcd5 in order to make it work. There's more info here. @jbrepogmailcom
