Installing Hotspotd turns off Wifi Connection.

I have been unable to join a hotspotd network from 3 android devices. The hotspots are visible, but android fails to connect in the WPA authentication stage.
I installed a proprietary driver in my Ubuntu 16.10 device. My wireless card is 03:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Limited BCM4313 802.11bgn Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01)
I ran lspci -k | grep -A 3 -i network and it says
03:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Limited BCM4313 802.11bgn Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01)
Subsystem: Broadcom Limited BCM4313 802.11bgn Wireless Network Adapter
Kernel driver in use: wl
Kernel modules: bcma, wl
So I ran modinfo wl | grep depend and it says
depends: cfg80211
I ran sudo hotspotd start it output something like these below. I believe there's something wrong with hotspotd itself:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/bin/hotspotd", line 28, in <module>
mainmod.main(args)
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/hotspotd/main.py", line 291, in main
the_version = open("VERSION").read().strip()
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'VERSION'
So what happened?
BTW bcma doesn't support the 80211 stuff. It says depends: and that is all.
I've been using your program for a few months now, after the first time I configured it, it kept running as intended. Now, I reinstalled it, the only things I changed in run.conf were ssid, wpa_passphrase, and interface (from wlan0 to wlp3s0). The hotspot shows up fine when my devices are looking for a wireless connection, and when I put in the correct passphrase, it seems to accept it, but then it just keeps attempting to connect forever. My devices did receive an IP-Address though, so they are obviously somewhat connected to the hotspot.
I also don't have a firewall turned on.
Another thing I don't understand is where the configuration files are for the hotspot. The real one, run.conf, I managed to locate, and when starting the hotspot, it seems to accept the configuration in run.conf, but when I try to configure the hotspot with sudo hotspotd configure , and add in a different configuration, and check run.conf again, I see that nothing had changed.
I tried using a different program, oblique/create_ap, and I was able to connect my devices through it, so I don't think it's an issue with my network settings.
The hotspot is working properly before I used the "apt-get dist-upgrade". After the process I can't turn on my hotspot anymore. I restarted the laptop but it wouldn't work.
Can someone please help me. I really need a hotspot for I am only using LAN.
Hello @prahladyeri
In an attempt to run it on Slackware GNU/Linux I refactored it. I'am quite happy with it. The changes and can be found here https://github.com/psachin/hotspotd
Let me know your view so that I start sending you changes.
I have hotspotd configured on my raspberry pi and it works perfectly.
The only thing i now want to configure is that when an ethernet cable is connected, i also have internet on the hotspot i created.
For the moment i start hotspotd in my rc.local so i can always connect to the rpi.
I have looked on the internet to set this up but didn't find an obvious answer.
This is my ifconfig. Removed the mac adresses (and ipv6)

Hi @prahladyeri , is there a way one can block a certain device using the MAC addr from accessing your hotspot?
Hi,
I followed your instructions and the youtube video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZzvNeGS0eI
Everything is fine but i am not able to see the SSID of the name i have created during the configuration in my wifi scan on my android mobile.

Thanks for providing a way to uninstall !
I realised that there was (at least) a leftover : /usr/local/bin/hotstpod is still there (but cannot run obviously).
Thanks

Downstream Linux distros will complain about these things.
"NOTE: sys.prefix doesn't equate to /usr/local for some reason" https://github.com/prahladyeri/hotspotd/blob/master/setup.py#L27
That reason is that the system prefix on most Linux systems is /usr, not /usr/local. (/usr/local is the prefix for Ports on BSD, though).
This whole mess to strip out the --prefix option? ( https://github.com/prahladyeri/hotspotd/blob/master/setup.py#L34 ) Distros set --prefix for a reason... this is objectionable.
In fact, a lot of this setup.py is just questionable. Why isn't it just the standard setup() boilerplate and not much else?
ii already use any way to fix it ,but no one can solve permanently
Edit README.md and make the following changes:
I can start hotspotd without problem. I leave the default password, only changed the SSID name
The SSID name appears on my cellphone, I put the default password (123456890) but appears an error while trying to authenticate.
I'm running the hotspotd into a Debian 8 with an USB adapter Realtek RTL8188CUS.
What am I doing wrong?
Other device can't connect to hotspot
Just showing Authenticating..
I have a doubt. Just want to know if it works or not. Say I have created two dhcp ranges using dnsmasq. Say the first range is from 192.168.45.20-40 and the second range is from 192.168.45.60-80. The first scope does not allow default gateway to the internet, the devices can only communicate with each other using TCP/UDP. The second scope allows access to the internet. Now, say a device is first allocated an IP address in the first scope. After connection, it changes its IP address to the second scope. Will it have access to the internet?
Wow! hotspotd works out of the box (I tried it on Dragonboard 410c). Very nice.
Now a question - what's the right way to add a simple web server, so when a I browse from my phone to any url, a default web page will be shown? (This will be used for the wifi provisioning of the device)
Is there anyway in which we can see the mac address of device when it is trying to connect to my wifi and ask the device for additional details? Can we block certain mac addresses using hotspotd?
Hi Yeri
After installing you hotspotd and running it two things I observe
sudo hotspotd command is working all fine. My wifi card supports the AP mode as well. However, I cannot see the hotspot name on my android phone. Can you tell me where I am going wrong?
I realize there is no way to uninstall your package. It would be good to provide a setup.py uninstall commande.
after installing when I run "sudo hotspotd start" it says:
hostapd executable not found. Make sure you have installed hostapd.
If you could help me with this problem?
thx
To minimize a dependency of the app,
hostapd license and whether it allows static binding.hotspotd in a "headless server" setup.hotspotd to something better.system: dietpi
sbc: orange pi lite
there is dedicated wifi-hotspot software in dietpi-software, but from unknow reasons it can't find repository of it. Hotspotd installed succesfully, but it still think that it is not #installed

Hello,
I've tested your software in my Linux Mint 17.1 machine but it does not seem to work properly.
The installation went smoothly, and I set up a hotspot using sudo hotspotd start and entered necessary info. The outputs suggest that hotspot is running, but it is not visible to any devices. I tried to connect to that in my iphone but it says not reachable.
When I do sudo python setup.py install the script says
File "setup.py", line 13
print 'Removing files from ' + loc
^
SyntaxError: Missing parentheses in call to 'print'
Is it because something is broken with your code, or something wrong with my system?
I have Manjaro 17.0.5 x86_64 installed
Thanks in advance

On systems other than ubuntu, the interface is not wlan0. In archlinux, it is wlo1 and something else in fedora. This id is not properly saved by the configure wizard. It is always wlan0. This triggers a silent failure; when start is invoked without -v it still says hotspot started, without any error text.
I tried on both fedora 21 and archlinux. Both require the wifi to be turned off by nmcli and then unblocked by rfkill. And the command line has changed for nmcli in these newer distros.
So please add a check for the nmcli version. If its the new one, do nmcli r w off. You can possibly remove the check for ubuntu.
Was using hotspotd in Kali (Sana) without any trouble but after updating Kali to Rolling. hotspotd is not working properly. hotspot is created n its showing on the phone but when i connect to hotspotd internet cannot be accessed.Plus when i want to stop hotspotd, the command works n it shows hotspot has stopped, but still i can see the hotspot in my phone :/
help me bro.

Hi, this software is awesome. I would like to start and stop hotspotd from a python script and not from the terminal is there any way to do this?
Hi everyone! I've been searching the internet about "slaving raspi with arduino" but I did not get any answer. All I see is "slave arduino with raspi". Does anyone here knows how to execute a python code on raspi using arduino via serial monitor? I am looking on how arduino send commands on serial monitor then to be executed by raspi.
Any comments and suggestions would be helpful.
Thank you and more power.
Sir! I am sorry I accidentally post this in here and I don't know how to transfer this post to where it belongs.

Hi,
I used this package to use wifi hotspot in Ubuntu 14.04 it was working fine, but after upgrading to 15.04 it doesn't seem work properly.
sudo hotspotd start
is running. but wifi signal is not there.
I used hotspotd-0.1.4 version
When I do: sudo hotspotd configure, it asks for password.
I would like to create a hotspot with SSID, but with no need for a password.
How would I go about to configure a domain name for the hotspot? Example, instead of directing a user to use an IP address go to doSomthing.com and that would redirect them to localhost.
I successfully installed everything on my Ubuntu 18.04 but i am unable to connect my android phone with the hotspot created with the hotspotd.
Well, i can't even see my hotspotd ssid on my phone, i tried "Add Network" thought it maybe a hidden network, but that doesn't work either!
Help Please!
When people use the hotspot can I serve content over it ?
I get the following error when I run install on CentOS 5.11. Looks like it should be 'run.dat' but I can't find where this is referenced in the code.
