Ok, interesting. After much trying many things, I've changed a few bits.
First, in the /etc/raspap/hostapd/servicestartstop.sh
I've added the following line where it creates the uap0
interface:
ip address add 192.168.55.1/24 dev uap0
(I modified the DHCP server settings to use 192.168.55.0).
And in /etc/network/interfaces
add
auto uap0
iface uap0 inet static
address 192.168.55.1/24
pre-up iw dev wlan0 interface add uap0 type __ap
pre-up ifconfig uap0 up
up ip address add 192.168.55.1/24 dev uap0
After doing those 2 things, it boots, and then takes another minute or two, and then seems the raspapd.service
runs again, and restarts the bits, hostapd, etc, and it's up and running and available to use.
As stated in the docs, this mode is experimental and completely unsupported
@billz you're referring to the AP-STA mode docs https://docs.raspap.com/ap-sta ? And just because it's marked as experimental means there's no bug fixes/support at all? I'd think the project would want to move towards it being fully supported eventually.
Won't happen. Many users failed to follow the steps and reported bugs like this one when AP-STA didn't work for them. For this reason, there's absolutely zero support.

Bug description
I'm trying to install on a RPi Zero W that I've had laying around. I have an 64GB mSD card, did a fresh install of 32-bit Bookworm Lite Raspian. Updated/full-upgrade, and then followed https://docs.raspap.com/ap-sta/#installation instructions for RPi Zero W installation.
After the install via the Quick Install script, the
uap0
interface was there, but down. When I would try and bring it up via theStart uap0
button on the Dashboard page. That wouldn't work, in fact got an error injournalctl
log saying no permissions. Even when I triedip link set uap0 up
as root, it kept showing as down. And no WiFi network with the chosen network name appears to clients.Steps to reproduce
Unsure if anything specific, but fresh Raspian Lite 32-bit on RPi Zero W v1.1, then follow install instructions at https://docs.raspap.com/ap-sta/#installation including not rebooting until after I had tried everything on that installation page, even checked
