Initial Setup to AP and reInit to STA does not work properly

I have created a small test example that esp wifi starts as AP if there are not credentials for ssid and pass in nvs.
Then from html you can set the ssid and pass to login and wifi is reinitialized to switch from AP to STA.

I a using esp-idf v4.4

As process the issues are:

After erase_flash ,flash and monitor the esp start to setup as AP.
At that moment before wifi_start i try to get wifi mode and the netif_config_t and i get

Code: Select all

W (660) WIFI_INIT: After reInit of mode
W (670) WIFI_INIT: wifi mode is null
W (670) WIFI_INIT: desc: ap
W (680) WIFI_INIT: key: WIFI_AP_DEF
After wifi start esp is AP but the ssid is not the same from what set in config. ssid of AP is ESP_C845D5 while in program was EspSSID , password works and i can login.

One more thing here i do not like the way wifi_ap_config_t is created but i can not use .ssid cause i get
"message": "C99 designator 'ssid' outside aggregate initializer"
so i put it immediately as you will see in code. And in order not to set all the params i set authmode outside.


After this normal login of laptop to esp happens and also normally with form i am passing the ssid and the pass to setup the wifi connection. Then wifi init happens again.

I (11780) esp_netif_lwip: DHCP server assigned IP to a station, IP is: 192.168.4.2
At this time esp goes to setup as STA, i destroy previous netif and create default of STA.

W (54950) ON STA INIT: netif is AP and we reset
W (54960) ON STA INIT: in config ssid: MyWeb24, pass: ComeAndGetIt
Then the same log happens after the end of sta setup for the wifi mode and the netif. Wifi mode is still null but netif is changed but wifi mode when esp starts on the last row is again softAP and not STA

After reboot esp tries to setup as STA credentials still exist in nvs but, netif can not be identified either as STA either as AP

Of course after these i get wifi mode null and no netif log cause it is null

I am giving you the complete log and these 3 functions with the wifi init and the two setups for sta and ap.

As you see something is completely wrong. Can someone show me the proper fixes?

Re: Initial Setup to AP and reInit to STA does not work properly

After several tests and check of the ap examples and the order of the functions called.

I have this working with some questions remain though. So solution is to put an intermediate commonInit function in order to place something call from both functions before i set the wifi_config_t

Wifi starts as AP and i can see the proper ssid. After setting the pass and ssid it switches to sta. The remaining issue is that when in every case of the process from the main ap i try to read the wifi mode it is null even if i set it now separately in each specific function of connect as sta or connect as ap.
Of course then the normal esp32 log shows that connections is softap or sta so system is working.
Code is like

Code: Select all

Also there is one more question how can i fix this part of the config:

wifi_ap_config_t ap_config={
"EspSSID3",
"Polycom!",
sizeof("EspSSID3"),
11,
WIFI_AUTH_WPA_WPA2_PSK,
0,
10,
100,
WIFI_CIPHER_TYPE_TKIP,
false
};

and use the .ssid= "something", .password="" etc
cause in this case i get
{
"resource": "/Users/kyrpav/workspace/esp32/tutorials/LearnEsp32/main/Lesson9/connect.cpp",
"owner": "cpp",
"severity": 8,
"message": "C99 designator 'ssid' outside aggregate initializer",
"startLineNumber": 105,
"startColumn": 5,
"endLineNumber": 105,
"endColumn": 5
}
