Did you build coovachilli 1.3.1.4 yourself ? or used packaged deb files ?

Normally if you built the code using ./configure --prefix=/usr it should work fine.

Have you checked wether /etc/default/chilli is activated ? Also you can use :

/etc/init.d/chilli radconfig

in order to generate config file before trying to run coovachilli

dwipujono commented 8 years ago

Hi,

I build from the source with ./configure --prefix= So it is installed in /etc/chilli/

There is no file named chilli in /etc/default/ I try to run /etc/init.d/chilli radconfig but it encounters an error:

/etc/init.d/chilli: 9: .: Can't open /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions

vsidou commented 8 years ago

You need to build it with :

./configure --prefix=/usr Then

make

sudo make install

Make sure /etc/chilli contains files Make also sure /etc/chilli.conf does exist Then activated chilli in /etc/default/chilli Generate configuration using ;

/etc/init.d/chilli radconfig

Then try again

dwipujono commented 8 years ago

Hi vsidou,

I have tried your solution, but it encounters same error. Any suggestion?

Regards, Pujo

Hi,

I still have the same error. Just for information, the package is built from the OpenWRT package with its default configuration.

Hi, could u guys check permissions ? what I see in here it's a permission issue.

github-jeff commented 8 years ago

same problem. Any solutions?

hailIulius commented 8 years ago

sudo cp /etc/chilli/defaults /etc/chilli/conf /etc/init.d/chilli start - will generate main.conf,hs.conf,local.conf

github-jeff commented 8 years ago

Thank you for the suggesttion hailulius. Unfortunately

sudo cp /etc/chilli/defaults /etc/chilli/conf or sudo cp /etc/chilli/defaults /etc/chilli/config - This is what it says in the default file header

cp defaults to conf or cp defaults to config (as it states in the defaults file) does not work.

sevan commented 8 years ago

To address the could not generate configuration error try chilli -fd

github-jeff commented 8 years ago

Now I can see what's going on. Thank you.

Looks like it is resolving the requests well enough but it is not allowing any access to the users.
