When trying to switch from one wifi network to another I have not been able to make the change over reliably. #109

Description

When trying to change the wifi details from one network to another problems occur. Many end in a crash with the wifi and password details being erased.

Steps to Reproduce

If you setup your phone to act as an access point and connect to the phone AP using the wifi manager you can switch off the phone AP and try to change wifi networks. The application also has a button which will stop the STA and restart the wifi manager AP.

System Configuration

I have corrected for the malloc issue: wifi_event_sta_disconnected_t wifi_event_sta_disconnected = (wifi_event_sta_disconnected_t)malloc(sizeof(wifi_event_sta_disconnected_t));

I have also included the following in the WM_ORDER_START_WIFI_SCAN code as the error check was stalling the code. / if a scan is already in progress this message is simply ignored thanks to the WIFI_MANAGER_SCAN_BIT uxBit / uxBits = xEventGroupGetBits(wifi_manager_event_group); if(! (uxBits & WIFI_MANAGER_SCAN_BIT) ){ xEventGroupSetBits(wifi_manager_event_group, WIFI_MANAGER_SCAN_BIT); // ESP_ERROR_CHECK(esp_wifi_scan_start(&scan_config, false)); esp_err_t error = esp_wifi_scan_start(&scan_config, false); if (error!=ESP_OK) ESP_LOGI(TAG, "MESSAGE: WIFI SCAN FAILED WITH CODE %d",error); } }

When trying to switch from one wifi network to another I have not been able to make the change over reliably. The application has a button which if you hold for 6 seconds the wifi configuration can be changed. This button executes the following.... wifi_manager_send_message(WM_ORDER_DISCONNECT_STA, NULL); wifi_manager_send_message(WM_ORDER_START_AP, NULL);

Connecting to the ESP32 wifi manager AP I have had several different problems which often cause a crash. On some occasions the SSID and password are erased. Crash reports are listed below.

** Following happened when stopped STA and started AP then entered new wifi details. Please note I have not removed the SSID and Password. The wifi manager has saved these as blank for no reason.**
