Hi, I'm currently studying coovachilli and tried to put a hotspot on but no succeed. Radiusdesk is running on a virtual machine under the ip 192.168.15.16
The strange thing is that while i'm connected via ethernet (on the ubuntu) i can see the hotspot login page with that "hotspot is not responding to status queries" EVEN though i can navigate through the internet without any problem.
But suddenly when I disconnect ethernet (JUST IN THE UBUNTU MACHINE, NOT IN THE VM WHERE RADIUSDESK IS RUNNING) the browser just hangs....
If my understanding is correct RadiusDesk requires JSON data
from Coova-Chilli, try to get your JSON working first as
recommended in your other post.
This helped me: https://sourceforge.net/p/hotcakes/wiki/Coova%20Chilli%20JSON%20Interface/
You need the libjson built with Coova-Chilli, (and haserl )installed.
The default build of Coova-Chilli for OpenWrt does not include libjson.
You may have to setup an OpenWrt build system for your device.
Then you can maybe use the web-console of your browser to hopefully see some debug
messages.
Edit1:
I've just check my setup and I dont seem to have haserl installed.
haserl lets chilli's internal web server serve script-based pages (the .chi files typically in /etc/chilli/www). When the UAM pages are hosted on a separate server (RadiusDesk here), it is not needed.
