This is on NetBSD 6.1 i386 using the base wpa_supplicant. (I haven't installed pkg wpa_supplicant, though vaguely remember even it gave this error.)
Earlier (and I can't figure out before doing WHAT) wpa_cli used to work fine for me. Now wpa_cli gives the following error and hangs: Could not connect to wpa_supplicant - re-trying wpa_supplicant is actually running fine as the encrypted network is functioning and "/etc/rc.d/wpa_supplicant status" also shows it running. How to go about diagnosing this? I used to rely on it to switch the wifi network quickly. Mayuresh
