Wireless Setup (OpenMediaVault) - wpa_supplicant

I'd like to get my USB wireless adapter running on my OMV box but I'm not getting anywhere right now.

Here's my /etc/network/interfaces file:

Zitat

# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# eth0 network interface
auto eth0
allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp

# wlan0 network interface
auto wlan0
#allow-hotplug wlan1
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

My /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

Zitat

# reading passphrase from stdin

ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant

network={
ssid="SSID_Name"
#psk="Hidding This"
psk=SOME_CRAZY_STRING
}

Now when I try to run 'ifup wlan0, I get the following

Zitat

root@debian:/etc/network# ifup wlan0
wpa_supplicant: /sbin/wpa_supplicant daemon failed to start
run-parts: /etc/network/if-pre-up.d/wpasupplicant exited with return code 1

I see wpa_supplicant daemon can't be started. Any tips or ideas?

Thanks,

I tried the WebUI and that didn't work. It was something I tried a few weeks ago so I don't remember the exact details but I do know it added something to my /etc/network/interfaces that made it incomplete and unable to connect to either wired or wireless. Since it's a headless server I had to hook it up to a monitor and keyboard and fix the file. Rather annoying.

I forgot to mention that my wireless interface is a USB adapter. It's an Asus USB-N53
