Configure for basic debug

Log messages in one place, this will help to figure out what is going on when failure occurs.

  • Edit /etc/sysconfig/wpa_supplicant file to log into /var/log/messages
OTHER_ARGS="-u -f /var/log/messages -P /var/run/wpa_supplicant.pid"
  • Edit /etc/rsyslog.conf file to log all kernel messages into /var/log/messages
kern.*;*.info;mail.none;authpriv.none;cron.none                /var/log/messages
  • Restart services
/etc/init.d/wpa_supplicant restart
/etc/init.d/rsyslog restart

Configure for verbose debug

Also requires settings from above.

  • Edit /etc/sysconfig/wpa_supplicant file to enable verbose debug
 
OTHER_ARGS="-u -f /var/log/messages -dd -P /var/run/wpa_supplicant.pid"
  • Edit /etc/init.d/NetworkManager file to enable verbose debug
daemon --pidfile $pidfile --check $servicename $processname --pid-file=$pidfile --log-level=DEBUG
  • Restart services
/etc/init.d/NetworkManager restart
/etc/init.d/wpa_supplicant restart
