Changing UI directory by command line, for ui customization #396

Open stefanodinc opened 3 years ago

stefanodinc commented 3 years ago

Hi, i have a raspberry PI4 with rasberrypi 5.10.17-v71+, everything works fine even if i try to change ssid, password, inactivity....but, unfortunately, not the same when i want to change the ui folder for customization purpose.

After i duplicated the ui folder, when i try to launch simply, sudo wifi-connect -u /mynewui or sudo wifi-connect -u ./mynewui or sudo wifi-connect -u mynewui, i connect easily to the wifi-connect AP with my phone but i can only see a webpage error (net: ERR_HTTP_RESPONSE_CODE_FAILURE) instead of index.html page.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Hi @stefanodinc,

I reproduced as you mentioned. But I can't get the same result as yours. I can still access the cloned captive portal.

Here's what I've done.

tree wifi-connect-v4.11.1-linux-armv7hf -L 1
# wifi-connect-v4.11.1-linux-armv7hf
# ├── ui
# └── wifi-connect
cd wifi-connect-v4.11.1-linux-armv7hf
cp -r ui ui-clone
./wifi-connect -u ./ui-clone

Then I access the "WiFi Connect" AP using iPhone with iOS 16. It automatically directs me to the captive portal. Then I can configure the WiFi normally.

Hello, Thanks for the great work. I would appreciated help from the community. I am using RPi 4B with 64 bit BookWorm OS. The wifi-connect works great without using the -u ./ui-clone or --ui-directory ./ui-clone. But, with any one of the ui flags, I am also facing the same issue. I think, not sure the problem is that wifi-connect is not able to identify the UI path. I would appreciatedt the help from the community.
