do_wifi_ssid_passphrase() fails to set scan_ssid on hidden network #209

Closed lairdrt closed 1 year ago

lairdrt commented 1 year ago

The code for do_wifi_ssid_passphrase() is missing a section that deals with setting the scan_ssid parameter within wpa_suppicant. This causes, for example, the Raspberry Pi Imager program to "fail" when the user sets the Hidden SSID option (i.e., the new image, upon boot, does not configure the wlan interface properly, which of course means you cannot connect to the system via WiFi). Adding the following processes the setting correctly:

if [ "$HIDDEN" -ne 0 ]; then
  wpa_cli -i "$IFACE" set_network "$ID" scan_ssid 1 2>&1 | grep -q "OK"
  RET=$((RET + $?))
fi

This was added after the section that manages the PASSPHRASE setting, around line 2477 in current version.

Many thanks for spotting this and the fix!

Should be fixed in the next image.
