Yep, 0.76 fixes a few problems introduces due the element removal
patches. Somisetty, could you retry with the 0.76 release?
Thanks,

Dear Daniel,
Sorry for the late reply. We tested wifi on connman-0.76, but wifi did not come
up. We also tried different versions of the connman still not able to get the
wifi up. We somehow suspect the wpa_supplicant installation in Fedora 14.
Details are as follows :
As per your mail dated : July 21, 2011, since version 0.69 the older
wpa_supplicant API (fi.epitest.hostap.WPASupplicant) is not supported anymore.
So i tested Connman lower version with wpa_supplicant-0.68 and higher with
wpa_supplicant-0.7.2.
Environment :
1. Fedora14,kernel version:2.6.35
2. dbus-daemon-1.4.0
3. Iptables-1.4.10
Issue: When NetworkManager is running, ifconfig brings up the wifi interface.
However when NetworkManager is stopped and start connmand, ifconfig does not
showup the wifi interface.
Steps followed :
a) Stop NetworkManager.
b) Stop network.
c) Started connmand.
d) ifconfig
Connmand Version Scenario :
1) Connman : Version .60 and .61 (wpa_supplicant-0.6.8)
Wifi Interface is working fine. Connmand was able to bring the wifi interface.
No issues.
2) Connman : Version .62 to .68 (wpa_supplicant-0.6.8)
Connmand was not able to bring the Wifi interface.
Even when successfully installing the Connaman specific version 0.67,0.68 and
0.69, and running their test scripts showing errors.
The output is :
[root@01HW102775 test]# ./list-services
ERROR:dbus.proxies:Introspect error on :1.65:/: dbus.exceptions.DBusException:

include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security

3) Connman : Version .69 to .76 (wpa_supplicant-0.7.2)
Here also connmand was not able to bring the Wifi Interface.
In our Fedora-14 system, by default the wpa_supplicant-0.6.8 and lower versions
of rpm packages are installed. So we installed the latest version of
wpa_supplicant.
I tried different scenarios of installation of wpa_supplicant:
a) Installed the latest wpa_supplicant-0.7.2.tar.gz without uninstalling the
earlier wpa_supplicant. So, it was showing two different version of
wpa_supplicant in the same system, at "/etc/wpa_supplicant" for
wpa_supplicant-0.6.8 and "/usr/local/sbin/wpa_supplicant" for
wpa_supplicant-0.7.2. Replaced that with the latest supplicant version. But
that didnt work.
b) Uninstalled wpa_supplicant-0.6.8 rpm package that is installed in Fedora 14
using :
"rpm -e --nodeps wpa_supplicant-0.6.8.fc14.i686" and then installed the latest
wpa_supplicant-0.7.2.tar.gz. But that installation didnt created files in
respective folders :"/etc/dbus-1/system.d/" and
"/usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/"
So, i copied files of those folders from Meego1.1 (CrownBay Board with
wpa_supplicant-0.7.2 ) into the respective folders in Fedora-14 system.
In /etc/dbus-1/system.d/ ----> "wpa_supplicant.conf"
and In /usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/ --->
"fi.epitest.hostap.WPASupplicant.service" "fi.w1.wpa_supplicant1.service"
Restarted system, stoped network and Network manager and started connmand. But,
still wifi didn't come up in ifconfig.
and even connmand not starting the wpa_supplicant in Background. And its
showing its status as :
[root@01HW102775 manager]# service wpa_supplicant status
wpa_supplicant: unrecognized service
Manually starting wpa_supplicant with :
[root@01HW102775 manager]# wpa_supplicant -Dwext -iwlan0
-c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
Bring up the wifi interface, but didnt show the service path in ./test-connman
services.
Kindly let me know how to bring the wifi interface in higher version. Is am i
doing something wrong in wpa_supllicant installation? Please suggest...!!
Thanks and Regards
Sree Gowri
