Hi Poliko and Rich
here it is..still no luck
Code: [Select]
tc@box:~$ ps | grep hostapd
 1011 tc       grep hostapd
tc@box:~$ cat /opt/bootlocal.sh
!/bin/sh
# put other system startup commands here
 #busybox httpd
#/usr/local/httpd/sbin/httpd -p 80 -h /mnt/sda1/wwwsite
 #apache2mod
#rm -rf /usr/local/apache2/htdocs
#ln -s /opt/apache2/htdocs /usr/local/apache2/htdocs
#ln -sf /opt/apache2/httpd.conf /usr/local/apache2/conf/
#apachectl start
 #eth0 205
/opt/eth0.sh
/opt/wlan0.sh
#hostapd -B /usr/local/etc/config/hostapd.conf 2>&1 | tee /tmp/hostapd.log
/usr/local/bin/hostapd -B /usr/local/etc/config/hostapd.conf 2>&1 | tee /tmp/hostapd.log
/usr/local/etc/init.d/openssh start &
tc@box:~$ cat /tmp/hostapd.log


and yes I add the /usr/local/etc/config/ folder in  /opt/.filetool.lst and backup

Hi aris
Poliko was correct. I was mistaken, the correct syntax is:
Code: [Select]
#!/bin/sh

I tried with
#!/bin/sh and also with !/bin/sh..same thing..no log on /tmp/hostapd.log (file exist but no content)
and hostapd is not start.

Hi aris
It definitely has to be:
Code: [Select]
#!/bin/sh so make sure you've changed it back. I suspect the  hostapd  command is not being executed. Use the  ps  command and
see if any of the following are still running:

bootlocal.sh
eth0.sh
wlan0.sh

If  eth0.sh  or  wlan0.sh  are still running, post their contents.

I don't think they'd still be running, however "openssh" most likely would be.

They shouldn't still be running, however,  eth0.sh  and  wlan0.sh  are run synchronously from  bootlocal.sh.  If one of them fails to
complete for some reason then the  hostapd  command will never execute and  bootlocal.sh  won't complete. The machine itself
will still finish coming up since  bootlocal.sh  is launched asynchronously  from  bootsync.sh.
