Not getting IP address connecting to AP #62

Closed ngmacha closed 5 years ago

I'm running a ZeroBotPro image (https://hackaday.io/project/25092-zerobot-raspberry-pi-zero-fpv-robot, it's a Jessie with MJPG streaming app and a few GPIO to control two motors) on a Raspberry Pi Zero W. I installed RaspiWiFi, after reboot the AP appears OK, but when connecting to it I get the IP in the 169.254.x.x range. Hence no way to browse to the RaspiWiFi Configuration page. Connecting a display/keyboard to the PiZero and trying to open https://10.0.0.1:9191 gives ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED....

I have no idea how even to troubleshoot this! And is there a way to cleanly uninstall your app, or I have to rewrite a clean image back? You app might be exactly what I need, but I somehow must make it properly work first! Thank you in advance for help.

There isn't a way to cleanly uninstall RaspiWiFi without re-imaging (...yet).

The current version of RaspiWiFi, 1.8, is not compatible with Raspbian Jessie and only works properly with Raspbian Stretch. Version 1.6 is the last version with Raspbian Jessie support. I had to drop it because of some changes in the way network configuration is handled between the two versions.
