wpa_supplicant not starting correctly

Hello there,

I've got configuration with eudev,dbus and busybox init. Previously everything worked fine, but now wpa_supplicant not starting. and I see this in /var/log/messages :

Mar 25 22:56:25 hostname daemon.notice dbus[120]: [system] Activating
service name='fi.w1.wpa_supplicant1' (using servicehelper)
Mar 25 22:56:26 hostname daemon.info init: starting pideudev 146, tty
'/dev/ttyS0': '/sbin/getty -L  ttyS0 0 vt100 '
Mar 25 22:56:26 hostname daemon.notice dbus[120]: [system] Activated

service 'fi.w1.wpa_supplicant1' failed: Failed to execute program fi.w1.wpa_supplicant1: Success

I'm not an expert in dbus, so asking for help what causes such problem? I think before some recent commit wpa_supplicant started by init script not by dbus is it true?

If you use network-manager or something managing wpa_supplicant, then they have always relied on D-Bus activation to start wpa_supplicant.

You seem to not run systemd, so the standard D-Bus activation should work. Check that you can run wpa_supplicant normally (i.e. by running it with the same parameters as specified in /usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/fi.w1.wpa_supplicant1.service ). If it does, there is another problem.

My current supposition is that your wpa_supplicant was built without D-Bus support.
