AP Mode - esp_wifi_set_config throwing error

Postby Amorphous » Sun Feb 05, 2023 5:30 am

Creating a program to start the ESP8266 in AP Mode. But everytime I run it the function esp_wifi_set_config throws an error

Error :

Code: Select all

	wifi_app_event_group = xEventGroupCreate();
	xTaskCreate(&wifi_ap_app_task, "wifi_ap_app_task", 4096, NULL, 5, NULL);

}
Can anyone please point to my mistake here?

Hi, you should run 'esp_netif_init()' prior to calling 'ESP_ERROR_CHECK(esp_event_handler_register(WIFI_EVENT, ESP_EVENT_ANY_ID, &wifi_event_handler, NULL));' the should fix the problem.
