[Bug 540070] Re: wicd connect to wpa2 wireless network bad password
Just distribution upgraded Xubuntu from 14.04 to 14.10 and ended up unable to connect to any wireless network. As above, the error was bad password, which I knew was not the case. I had already determined that the upgrade included network-manager, which I had previously replaced with wicd because network-manager doesn't provide enough information to help when there are problems connecting wirelessly, and makes life really difficult when using a static IP is necessary. After reading the above, I found nothing in the network-manager settings that simply shut it off completely, so I removed network-manager (sudo apt-get autoremove network-manager), after which wicd 1.7.2.4 connected without a problem. So whatever the cause of this bug, it's still there, and it may not be a wicd bug, but a network-manager bug. When I had the original problem with network-manager, I searched the Internet for best network-managers, and the general consensus was wicd, with which I had previously had little but all good experience, so that's what I installed. On other machines with KDE, I have network- manager installed, but it has been somewhat of a pain in the nether regions. I'm still coming up to speed on linux, and my biggest gripe is that every flavor of linux seems to feel obliged to use a different version of something, even if it's not nearly the best or even much worse. So unless Ubuntu knows what network-manager can do that wicd cannot do that is so great that it offsets the fact that network-manager isn't as friendly or as reliable as wicd, they should be asking themselves just how they hope to benefit in the OS races by continuing to make it part of their desktop packages. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/540070 Title: wicd connect to wpa2 wireless network bad password To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wicd/+bug/540070/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Everything was working perfectly for me using Wicd. However, I wanted to test connecting to an ad hoc network, which Wicd has a known inability to do (https://bugs.launchpad.net/wicd/+bug/129608), so I purged Wicd and re-installed Network Manager.

I've had problems with wicd being flaky in connecting to my hidden WPA2 network.

This evening I decided to upgrade the passphrase from 30 to 63 characters, and the bad password complaint is back again.

[Bug 540070] Re: wicd connect to wpa2 wireless network bad password
Got bitten by this bug (bad password) after upgrading a machine from Ubuntu 9.10 to 10.04. It reinstalls network-manager. Steps to fix in a terminal: sudo aptitude remove network-manager sudo /etc/init.d/wicd restart Hit the tray icon and connect to a wpa2 network of your choice. -- wicd connect to wpa2 wireless network bad password https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/540070 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I can confirm that #18's suggestion fixed it for me, but I had to reboot after removing network-manager for some reason. -- wicd connect to wpa2 wireless network bad password https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/540070 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 540070] Re: wicd connect to wpa2 wireless network bad password
I have the problem discussed here. I tried to downgrade to wicd 1.6 by doing below but was unsuccessful, could you help please: Added the following 4 lines in /etc/apt/sources.list 1. # karmic universe deb http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ karmic universe deb-src http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ karmic universe deb http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ karmic-updates universe deb-src http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ karmic-updates universe 2. sudo apt-get update 3. search wicd in synaptic but only version 1.7 shows up, could not see 1.6 to install. 4. selected 1.7, and clicked package -- force version. 1.6 and 1.7 both shows up in pop up selection menu; but choosing 1.6 causes the apply button to disable. so apply does not work. How exactly should I do it. Sorry if I am doing something silly, but never did a downgrade like this.

[Bug 540070] Re: wicd connect to wpa2 wireless network bad password
I noticed this problem after upgrading to Lucid. After removing wicd, I went to try network-manager, and discovered it was already installed and running. After removing network-manager, and re-installing wicd, it works fine. Perhaps the problem is that installing Lucid's wicd package doesn't uninstall network-manager, and they have a race to see who controls the wireless. -- wicd connect to wpa2 wireless network bad password https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/540070 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

april 15 - without changing any settings, wicd works for me again. I'm running a ThinkPad X60s. I try suspend out - on resume I get the broken wicd behavior again.

I installed Lucid on April 8, wicd was working for me until I did an update the evening of April 12. At that point I began getting the behavior described in the bug description. nm-applet works for me. Running the two concurrently is a bit funky, so I'm using only network- manager-gnome right now. -- wicd connect to wpa2 wireless network bad password https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/540070 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This bug also affects me, even after all updates, purging my wicd installation I'm not able to get it working. I'm going to downgrade as described in the above post and hopefully that will get me working again.

[Bug 540070] Re: wicd connect to wpa2 wireless network bad password
I have managed to downgrade to 1.6.1-3ubuntu1. This has solved the issue for me. Not really a fix though. To downgrade: - edit /etc/apt/sources.list and added links to the karmic repositories for the universe group. Did a software update. Opened synaptic package manager Searched for wicd. Select package - force version. Selected version 1.6.1-3. Applied the update. It downgraded successfully and resolved the relevant dependencies. I then selected package - lock version. I edited /etc/apt/sources.list and removed the karmic entries I'd just added. -- wicd connect to wpa2 wireless network bad password https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/540070 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I'm not having a problem with wicd, but am when connecting to a network drive. I'm asked for a keyring password, but then fail to ever make a connection.
