Smart config - SC_EVENT_SEND_ACK_DONE never received (IDFGH-14432)

[leenowell]

Answers checklist.

• I have read the documentation ESP-IDF Programming Guide and the issue is not addressed there.
• I have updated my IDF branch (master or release) to the latest version and checked that the issue is present there.
• I have searched the issue tracker for a similar issue and not found a similar issue.

IDF version.

ESP-IDF v5.5-dev-1050-gb5ac4fbdf9

Espressif SoC revision.

ESP32-D0WDQ6 (revision v0.0)

Operating System used.

Linux

How did you build your project?

Eclipse IDE

If you are using Windows, please specify command line type.

None

Development Kit.

ESP WROOM 32

Power Supply used.

USB

What is the expected behavior?

Having initiated Smart Config and received a SC_EVENT_GOT_SSID_PSWD event I expect to subsequently receive a SC_EVENT_SEND_ACK_DONE event.

What is the actual behavior?

I never receive the SC_EVENT_SEND_ACK_DONE event

Steps to reproduce.

Run the smart config example and send the smart config data using the ESP Touch app (I used Android version - App version 2.3.3 ESP Touch version 1.1.1) and used regular ESP Touch as opposed to v2.

More Information.

I modified the code to log when the SC_EVENT_SEND_ACK_DONE was received as follows

} else if (event_base == SC_EVENT && event_id == SC_EVENT_SEND_ACK_DONE) {
    ESP_LOGI(TAG, "Smart Config ACK done");
    xEventGroupSetBits(s_wifi_event_group, ESPTOUCH_DONE_BIT);
}

Hi @MaxwellAlan I was wondering if you have any updates on this?

[zhangyanjiaoesp]

@leenowell
It seems your wifi connection fail, is the password correct? Can you capture the wifi packets using Wireshark?

[leenowell]

Hi @zhangyanjiaoesp

Thanks for getting back to me. This is related to the other issue we are working on related to getting smart config and the mesh to work together - #15213.

I think this one can now be closed as it was covered on the other issue

@leenowell Please close this on your side, thanks
