[Solved] XpressConnect Installation
[Solved] XpressConnect Installation
Hi guys, after using Debian for a while i must say im loving it!
The only issue im having is using a script called XpressConnect (Used to connect to University Wifi)
The script runs perfectly on Ubuntu 12.10, but it seems to be broken on debians side.
Im using a Thinkpad T420.
I can also upload the script if requested.
Thanks, John

Re: XpressConnect Installation
can you post the instructions for the script?
also please post the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list

Can you connect to any other wifi normally?

Re: XpressConnect Installation
1. Does your wireless card 'work' under normal circumstances? What does
give you?
If it does it's not driver related.
2. Which XpressConnect version are you using?
3. Are you using network-manager? For some stupid reason this is apparently required by XpressConnect.
4. To see whether there was anything odd about the download, I tested it (wheezy, am64, lenovo thinkpad sl410; intel wlan)
and the gui starts. I don't have network manager (using wicd) so I haven't tested it beyond that.

Re: XpressConnect Installation
This is the script i have downloaded from the university.
Output of my sources.list
Yes, my normal wifi works fine.
sudo ifconfig -a outputs:

I cant see what version of XpressConnect im running (although its probably in the script, right in front of my eyes..)
Yes, i have network-manager to the latest version
Sorry about all this, if there is anything wrong let me know. Im still new. and thanks a lot for the help

Re: XpressConnect Installation
So in what sense isn't it working? What are you doing (in detail) and what happens?
Your wireless card is properly set up and you've got the drivers loaded ok, so there must be something odd which you're doing.
Try the following:
It's basically what I showed in my earlier post, but by downloading the script from swinburne.

Re: XpressConnect Installation
When i run the script and it loads the GUI it tells me "A configuration was not found for this device. If you think this is in error, click "Retry" to reevaluate your machine" Im assuming this is because Ubuntu is the only distro officially supported, when i click continue and try to connect to the network it reverts me back to the page with the warning on it.
Re: XpressConnect Installation
So the issue is with XpressConnect then, not debian. The IT support at your uni might be able to help you. In particular, I wonder what XpressConnect actually does -- a brief search seems to indicate that it does nothing but configure your connection. You should presumably be able to do that by hand.
Anyway, someone with experience of using XpressConnect might be able to assist you
Edit: looking at http://www.its.swinburne.edu.au/student ... index.html it seems Swinburne is simply using eduroam, which is easy to set up manually. It really annoys me when they can't simply post the required settings, instead of using a useless wrapper script to complicate things, and then artifically cripples it by refusing to run on distros which aren't specifically supported.
Anyway, if that's the case just use network manager to connect directly -- I'm using something similar to the settings here with debian at a certain uni in Melbourne.
Edit 2: 'here' in the previous edit was referring to this: https://www.it.unsw.edu.au/students/edu ... vices.html
Edit 3: Another doc with similar settings (of course they show how to do it for android, ipad, iphone, win 7, win xp and a couple of os x flavours, but not linux): http://wireless.k-state.edu/connect/manual_connect.pdf. Still, if my uni is anything to go by, all the info you need is there.

llivv,
I don't mean to say that you're wrong, but I don't think that's an actual error message in this case - it's just seems to be the last one in a long list of possible messages.
hex9,
for another eduroam configuration, see e.g. the instructions at monash for network-manager: http://intranet.monash.edu.au/esolution ... linux.html
I'm also setting up a virtual machine with gnome/network-manager and a sub wifi dongle to test the xpressconnect script. I don't think you ever mentioned whether you were using squeeze or wheezy though.

Re: XpressConnect Installation
Im currently using wheezy, i really appreciate your help, i cant see anything on the monash page to help me though, i cant login.
Re: XpressConnect Installation
Again, I'm making the assumptions that
1. XpressConnect doesn't do anything other than configure the network for you.
2. Monash and Swinburne have set up eduroam in the same way
If that is the case, try connecting to eduroam using network-manager with the following settings:
As username put your staff/student email. As password, use your Swinburne password.
If it all works, you can always add the CA cert later.
If this doesn't work, contact IT, especially as they do say that if you OS isn't supported you SHOULD contact them. It's part of their job to field these questions (and ideally to solve them too), after all.

Re: XpressConnect Installation
As an aside, I set up a virtual machine with Squeeze and plugged in a USB wifi dongle, and used network manager. I had no luck with XpressConnect here either -- same error as before. I'll try in an ubuntu vm as well to see if, and if so how, it behaves differently.
It worked in ubuntu 10.04 lts. I've got strace logs and files to compare now.
Note that I used 32 bit ubuntu and 64 bit debian (squeeze). Also, I added no non-free drivers or firmware to debian (but it's using the rtl8187 driver), and I didn't make any post-install modifications.
Ubuntu gives the following in /tmp/xpressconnect.log:
and Debian gives
Looks like the answer might be right there -- either to do with nm or dbus?
The network manager version in debian is 0.8.1-6+squeeze2 and in ubuntu is 0.8-0ubuntu3.2.
The XpressConnect script downloads a 64 bit dynamically linked executable on debian 64 bit, and a 32 bit dyn. linked executable on ubuntu 32 bit.
I've repeated this on debain 32 bit with only eth0 and wlan0. Same issue.
On debian no /tmp/netdata.txt gets written (it's empty), while on ubuntu netdata.txt contains the following
It get's overwritten each time you run /tmp/Xpressconnect-x64.
Anyway, this seems to be the configuration file which xpressconnect is complaining about as being missing.
Stupidly, write-protecting netdata.txt doesn't solve anything.
Anyone has any suggestions on what I can check to help the OP?

Re: XpressConnect Installation
hex9,
you should try connecting without xpressconnect as I describe above and see if it works. XpressConnect should just be a wrapper script, so we don't want to spend too much time trying to get it to work if it isn't necessary. Also, contact the university IT services.
I tried xpressconnect on arch (64 bit) and it behaves exactly like it does on debian.
I don't think there's going to be a simple fix, so try simply connecting and manually configuring instead.
