[SOLVED] dhcpcd: timed out

I want to install Arch using wifi. I'm trying to connect to my WPA network before I even begin.
I did this (with my own network and passphrase in place)
wpa_passphrase mywireless "secretpassphrase"
wpa_passphrase mywireless "secretpassphrase" > /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
ifconfig wlan0 up
wpa_supplicant -B -Dwext -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
dhcpcd wlan0
And got:
dhcpcd: version 5.2.2 starting
dhcpcd: wlan0: waiting for carrier
dhcpcd: timed out
What's wrong?
EDIT: Long story. Wrong key

Before starting dhcpd, make sure you are connected - run wpa_supplicant without the -B switch to check for errors.

[solved] dhcpcd: timed out after reinstalling arch

Hi erveryone!
After reinstalling arch I can't connect to my wireless network anymore.
Typed:
wpa_supplicant -B -Dwext -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant_vienna.conf
dhcpcd wlan0
Got:
dhcpcd: wlan0: waiting for carrier
dhcpcd: timed out
wpa_supplicant_vienna.conf (ssid and psk deleted):
network={
ssid=""
proto=RSN
pairwise=CCMP TKIP
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
psk=
I reinstalled arch on my netbook at the same time and there's everything working fine (even with the same wireless-card). The only difference between the two systems is that my laptop has an i686 installation while on my netbook I've installed x86_64.
Things I've tried:
+ Update the system via wired-connection (mirrors.kernel.org) --> the download never gets faster than 10KB/s (?).
+ Configure the wireless interface via netcfg --> same problem
+ Reinstalled again and only changed LOCALE in /etc/rc.conf --> same problem
So you may see, I have no idea what I could be doing wrong and hope that theres anybody out there who knows what to do!
P.S. Well, i have now by-passed my problem.
1.) Created a list of packages installed during system-update on my netbook.
2.) In this list I changed package-name-x86_64.tar.gz to package-name-i686.tar.gz
3.) Downloaded the list with wget.
4.) Ccopied the packages to my laptop
5.) Created a local repository and made a system-update.

Hi trusktr
This might seem stupid but are you sure you are using "eth0" and not "eth1" etc.? As an example I have two on-board lans and I'm plugged into eth1. I had to change rc.conf as it defaults to using eth0.
#Static IP example
#eth0="eth0 192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255"
eth1="dhcp"
INTERFACES=(eth1)
Since I am using eth1 and not eth0 here is what I get when I try:
ifconfig eth0:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:04:4B:00:88:0E
BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b)
Interrupt:23 Base address:0x6000
Look familiar?
I'm not saying this is the case but it could be something as simple as that.
ifconfig -a
should show you how many lans you have.
Thought I would drop the obvious first in case that's all it is.

Make sure you bring up the interface with ifconfig before you run dhcpcd.
Try:

And then run dhcpcd on that interface.
should i run
#ifconfig wlan1 up
just before i run dhcpcd? Becuse ive followed the wireless guide on the wiki without luck.
I get the feeling i am just missing something stupid tbh.
Tnx for your answers!

[SOLVED] dmraid "Timed out waiting for device" at boot

Created a bug report with solution proposal: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/33166
I created a virtual machine to demonstrate the problem
https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B40Hp1 … WZUQ21xZk0
The root and the other mount points are all on one raid disk. Although the root mounts quickly, other mount points cause timeouts at boot time.
dmraid prints that all /dev/mapper/isw_* devices are created.
I think /dev/disk/by-uuid/* links are created too, but for some reason systemd doesn't see them.
After boot I can execute "mount -a" without errors.

I've ran into exactly same problem lately, but finally solved it.
Setup: Intel Fake RAID, mirror, partitioned as:
/dev/mapper/isw_dfjeffgfaj_rootvol1 /boot
/dev/mapper/isw_dfjeffgfaj_rootvol2 /
/dev/mapper/isw_dfjeffgfaj_rootvol3 /home (dm-crypted)
In /etc/fstab i had following mountpoints:
# file /etc/fstab
/dev/mapper/isw_dfjeffgfaj_rootvolp2 / ext4 rw,relatime,data=ordered 0 1
/dev/mapper/isw_dfjeffgfaj_rootvolp1 /boot ext4 rw,relatime,data=ordered 0 2
and boot hung on waiting for /dev/mapper/isw_dfjeffgfaj_rootvolp1. Solution involves changing dev path to UUID:
# file /etc/fstab
/dev/mapper/isw_dfjeffgfaj_rootvolp2 / ext4 rw,relatime,data=ordered 0 1
UUID=44809529-11d9-4f53-9652-7b97ed077225 /boot ext4 rw,relatime,data=ordered 0 2
For some reason symlinks /dev/mapper/isw* are not present during systemd mount.

Airlive USB WiFi - dhcpcd timed out

Hi all,
I'm trying to get working wireless connection with AirLive Turbo-g USB Wifi. I've installed wifi-radar and tried to connect to my AP. Firstly, output says Invalid argument to my WPA key and then it's trying to get an IP adress by dhcpcd which ends with Timed out.
Some ideas please? And it's Dell Latitude X200 laptop.

But how? May I reconfigure wifi-radar, so it will use dhclient instead dhcpcd? I've tried that, but thats not better.
I'm wondering why it says "Invalid argument 'my WPA key' "
Heh, really strange.

My ethernet card is a Rhine II VT6102 rev 74 and the driver is via_rhine.
Today I installed xscreensaver and immediately lost my network connection. So far I have tried the following without success:

tried several versions of ip link... without any change
unplugged the network cable for a few seconds; now eth0 state is UP

stopped dhcpcd@eth0 and tried just dhcpcd eth0
disable dhcpcd@eth0 and enable dhcpcd
reload the driver using modprobe
Sorry for the lack of log/error msg output but I have no way to get the data off the computer except copy by hand and then manually enter it here. Journalctl and the error msgs are all similar however:

[SOLVED] "eth1 timed out" but by iwconfig-command it works

Hi,
Strange, Im setting up my wireless with ipw2200-fw. I used the template-Network-Profile and changed the settings like this:
# Network Profile
DESCRIPTION="wifi profile"
# Network Settings
INTERFACE=eth1
HOSTNAME=myhostname
# Interface Settings (use IFOPTS="dhcp" for DHCP)
IFOPTS="dhcp"
#GATEWAY=192.168.0.1
# DNS Settings (optional)
# Wireless Settings (optional)
ESSID="essid"
KEY=1234567890
IWOPTS="mode managed essid $ESSID channel 11 key restricted $KEY"
#WIFI_INTERFACE=wlan0 # use this if you have a special wireless interface
# that is linked to the real $INTERFACE
#WIFI_WAIT=5 # seconds to wait for the wireless card to
# associate before bringing the interface up
#USEWPA="yes" # start wpa_supplicant with the profile
#WPAOPTS="" # use "" for normal operation or specify additional
# options (eg, "-D ipw")
# see /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf for configuration
#AUTOWPA="yes" # automatically configure WPA
#PASSKEY="" # wpa passkey/phrase. for use with AUTOWPA
When I boot up with kernel-option "net=home" it results in a "eth1 timed out". But if I use the following iwconfig-command, it works:
iwconfig eth1 mode managed essid "essid" channel 11 key restricted 1234567890
What is wrong with my config? Maybe the kernel-parameter is not correct?
Thanks for help.

[solved]eth0: timed out

Hi,
I am having problems getting internet connection bia ethernet.
I have no way of posting the exact files from the arch box, but here is my rc.conf network part:
eth0="dhcp"
INTERFACES=(eth0)
ROUTES=(!gateway)
And i can not connect
It always says it timed out.
Last edited by Fork (2008-06-20 22:43:22)

What is your router's IP address? That will be your gateway's address, and before the "ROUTES=(!gateway)" line, you need to put this:
gateway="default gw 192.168.0.1"
where 192.168.0.1 is the router's IP address; yours may differ (mine is 192.168.1.1, for example).
and it should connect. Also, you should make sure that the "network" daemon is up and running and is in the DAEMONS section at the bottom of /etc/rc.conf.

Require help to solve Connection timed out error while reload initial data

Dear Developers,
I have installed SAP NetWeaver and SAP ME SDK 2.0 on my laptop and working from offshore, the SAP ME WIP and ODS database is situated at onsite. The installation is working fine, however, after developing Activity Hooks, at the step where I need to Reload Initial Data for the Site where I want the Activity to be used I get the below error message:
500 Connection timed out
Error: -5
Version: 7011
Component: ICM
Date/Time: Wed Mar 07 12:37:38 2012
Module: icxxthr.c
Line: 4184
Server: <laptop_hostname>_<SID>_00
Error Tag: {-}
Detail: Connection to partner timed out after 600s
© 2001-2009, SAP AG
How to find out what is causing this error? When I use the hostname of the onsite SAP ME application pointing to the same database, Reload Initial Data works fine. I need to reload initial data from laptop SAP ME application only, beacause the activity hook classes reside on my laptop, before I send the SAPME.sca files for common server build.

Hello,
Please try to increase PROCTIMEOUT ICM parameter for the corresponding server\port. If it does not help, please, check NW default traces for ME errors and share your results with us.
Best regards,
Alex.

[SOLVED] Asus 1005PE ethernet | Atheros AR8132 | dhcpcd eth0:timed out

Hello, this was solved through the following process BUT:
pacman -Syu updated my system and kernel. After that update I needed
to reverse the line that I changed before in rc.conf. I change it back to
MODULes=() [removed !atl1c atl1e] which leads to atl1c being loaded
autmoatically. Seems they fixed the problem in a update.
These threads helped me:
( I )http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=78891
( II )http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-setup-n … aunty.html
Current driver for AR8132:

Hardware:
Asus eeePC 1005PE with Atheros AR8132 ethernet device.
uname -r:
2.6.30-ARCH
Problems:
eth0 not showing up at ifconfig
ethernet device not showing up at lspci
at boot error ar "Start Network"
dhcpcd: timed out
ridiculous count of errors Tx, Rx ..
Removing battery and power cord for a while and then booting without lan cable helped
recognizing the ethernet device at lspci (and eth0 at ifconfig if I remeber right). Plugging
the lan cable produced a high count of errors at Tx, Rx.
(II)
Get the driver (III) and get it ready(II):
tar -xzvf AR81Family-linux-v1.0.1.6.tar.gz
cd src
make
make install
(the note about "#define IRQ_HANDLED 1" (II) wasn't necessary for me. My guess is they updated the driver and it is no longer necessary.)
edit the /etc/rc.conf, prevent atl1c from loading, add atl1e:
MODULES=(!atl1c atl1e) [should look similar to this]
reboot
After reboot the error "dhcpcd: timed out" or "eth0: interface not found or invalid" was fixed,
"ping -c 3 www.google.com" was successful.
lsmod shows atl1e and ifconfig shows eth0.
I hope this is useful to someone, it took me a while to figure it out.

This is already in my rc.conf:

eth0="dhcp"
INTERFACES=(eth0)
gateway="default gw 192.168.0.1"

I don't see lines missing there.
Unplugging the power cord and removing the battery for some minutes helped somehow (found that odd tip through google). I booted without the lan cable connected and the Atheros AR8132 / L1c was recognized.
Got a new problem then. /etc/rc.d/network restart leads to:
:: Stopping Network [DONE]
:: Starting Network [BUSY]
dhcpcd: timed out
[FAIL]
dhcpcd eth0 leads to:
dhcpcd: version 5.0.6 starting
dhcpcd: eth0: waiting for carrier
dhcpcd: timed out
Suprisingly the 1005HA has the same ethernet device and should be working out of the box..

[Solved with dhcpcd-5.1.5-1] dhcpcd-5.1.4-1, timed out

Hello,
I experienced a timed out issue with the new release of dhcpcd. When launched, it indicates a time out, so it can't get information about the network. Downgrading to dhcpcd-5.1.3-1 is the only fix I found.
Is anyone else experiencing this upgrade issue ?

Last edited by keronn (2010-02-04 08:17:09)

I have the same problem. Thought it had something to do with the new version of dhcpcd, so I did a fresh install (it's a test machine), added dhcpcd in the IGNORE list and updated the system. The version of dhcpcd is 4.0.10-1 and the kernel is 2.6.32.3-1
Upon first reboot after the system update eth0 received an address, but every reboot since I experience the timeout problem. The DHCP server does acknowledge the test-machine, but the test-machine doesn't apply the address. Anyway it seems the problem isn't dhcpd as such, maybe a problem with a network driver in 2.6.32?
Edit:
Hmm.. There's 2 NIC's in the test-machine, but it seems random which module is loaded first and apparently what interface get the name eth0 and eth1. I remember that listing the modules in the right order in rc.conf can help, and upon reboot the test-machine correctly received a DHCP address! There's just one strange thing.. The 2. NIC (eth1) is set to a static address, but during my "debugging" I set it to DHCP so both NIC's should get an address from DHCP. However, when restarting the network ifconfig still reported that eth1 was set to the static address?? How could the static address be used when I commented that line out? As if rc.conf was not read?
Edit2:
So besides the weird static address thing (which doesn't matter now), DHCP works every time now when rebooting. BUT this is with the old dhcpcd. I haven't tried upgrading it and dhcpcd is still ignored in pacman.conf. Now that the test-machine is behaving I think I'll let it be, sorry to be such a chicken.. I'll keep an eye on this issue and hope it'll work with a new version of dhcpcd soon.

[Solved] wlan0 carrier timed out - AR9285

Good evening, fellows.
I've been reading this forums for some time now, and I've decided to register and to post a problem that probably has a simpler solution than what I'm thinking about right now.
So, I have a quick script for connecting to a WPA wlan0 address (home one), and I keep getting:
dhcpcd[...]: version 5.5.6 starting
dhcpcd[...]: wlan0: waiting for carrier
dhcpcd[...]: timed out
The script is:
#!/bin/bash
ip link set wlan0 down
rm /var/lib/dhcpcd/dhcpcd-wlan0.lease
rm /var/run/wpa_supplicant/wlan0
iwconfig wlan0 channel auto
ip link set wlan0 up
wpa_supplicant -B -Dwext -iwlan0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
dhcpcd wlan0
ip addr show wlan0
The strange part comes when I'm trying to run this script, as it has been working flawlessly until yesterday. Do you see anything strange?
lspci:

Also, I'm not on a graphical interface, but a console-only view. (aka I have to startx to logon onto xfce, but I rarely do). I'm using 3.3.1-1-ARCH kernel, might this be the same problem as exposed here?

If you're on kernel 3.3.1, there are issues with ath9k on that one. Either downgrade the kernel or install compat-wireless.
There are quite a few threads around there already... Can't miss them .
Yup, I bet the one that I was quoting on the last sentence might be one of those, sorry for the duplicity. However, I'd probably wait until 3.4, as it's now on rc2 -- maybe there we'll have that issue solved on both sides.
Thanks!

[SOLVED] Issue with eth0 (eth0: timed out)

Hi there people, just installed Arch on my PC (again). The first time I had no problems with this, but now it is really bothering me. Well, my PC only access the net via wireless, so I have no wired connection for it. Here's my /etc/rc.conf:
# /etc/rc.conf
eth0="dhcp"
wlan0="dhcp"
wlan_wlan0="wlan0 essid MySpot key ABCDEFABCDEF1234567ABCDEFC"
INTERFACES=(eth0 wlan0)
Well, everything is working fine, I can get access to the internet on bootup. My only concern is that my system is taking awfully long to boot. It takes about 1-2 minutes on "::Starting Network", then it shows me "eth0: timed out". Then it takes about 10 secs to start my wlan0 interface and the system finishes booting. I had previously installed Arch 2008.12, and the Starting Network only took about 10 secs to start my wlan0. I have already tried commenting out the eth0 line and putting a ! in front of eth0 on INTERFACES, but doing that only shows me an error message for my wlan0 and render my internet unusable on system bootup. So, my questions are:
1) Do I really need the eth0 interface for my connection (since I'm using wlan0 for wireless connection) ? Why can't I comment it out?
2) If I really need eth0, how can I make my boot time go faster, or how can I make it not time out?
Thanks in advance for any help given...
EDIT: problem solved, see Post 8 below for answers...

Thanks for answering. Well, I think eth0 is being detected correctly. Here is the output for ifconfig:

Well, I hope that can help. Searched the net and the forums, and every problem related to this is with people who are actually trying to use the eth0 interface for connection. In my case, I don't think I need it, I only need the wlan0. What I'm trying to do is get rid of eth0 while letting wlan0 work.

ITunes connection has timed out - solved on Mac

I have a MacBook Pro, running OS 10.5.8. I am running iTunes 10.5. Every time I went to purchase an app thru the iTunes store, on login attempt, I'd receive an error message that the iTunes connection had timed out.
All of the Apple troubleshooting support I checked said to check the connection (duh), check the version of iTunes was current, and for Windows users, the version of IE. Check check check. Everything was fine.
I finally stumbled on this article first: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3297
Following the steps as outlined, led to checking the firewall. Not understanding what step(5) meant "Reduce the restrictions on access in the firewall" because the connections for iTunes were allowed, I ended up clicking on the Advanced button, and then opening the console log. In the console log, I found numerous errors from "com.apple.kdcmond" that was attempting to access my computer. I was concerned it was some vicious attack on the computer, but after a search of "com.apple.kdcmond" found another post complaining of the same error messages that I was receiving. The clip from below was a response to fix the problem. I followed the directions.... as it said, my computer name was missing from the field where it belonged. Entering my hard drive name in the blank field, fixed my iTunes problem. Hope this helps someone else.
I just had the same problem. I solved it by going to the Sharing System Preference and entering my computer name, which was blank. It had been entered previously, and I'm not sure how it was deleted. At any rate, the error messages went away.

Just wanted to add, when I logged on earlier to post the first question, the message "Connection has timed out" seemed to happen within seconds. This was going from the log in page back to the forum page.
Sometimes, the message does not appear for a minute or so when loading a new page or as before, when going from one page to another within a domain.
This time, the forum page loaded without a problem and no error between log in page and returning to forum.
Therefore, this is an intermittent problem.
Suggestions?

How to up the timeout setting to solve password reset portal error "Authentication gate timed out waiting for a challenge response"?

Hi Everyone,
We have the password portal up and running on one box and another server with FIM R2 and SharePoint 2010. All is good with the exception that our end users typically get distracted during the password registration and/or reset process and receive:
"An error has occurred. Please try again, and if the problem persists, contact your help desk or system administrator. (Error 3000) ". The timeout kicks in after 5 minutes of inactivity in the browser.
The FIM Service log shows the following:
"Authentication gate timed out waiting for a challenge response".
I have confirmed that the default password portal web.config setting is <add key="SessionTimeoutInMinutes" value="20" />.
We have also updated Microsoft.ResourceManagement.Service.exe.config per this
article to the following but with no luck:
<resourceManagementClient resourceManagementServiceBaseAddress="myAddress" timeoutInMilliseconds="600000" />
<resourceManagementService externalHostName="myHost" dataReadTimeoutInSeconds="600" dataWriteTimeoutInSeconds="600"/>
We did not update the Windows SharePoint Servicesweb.config setting per the article about since we are on SharePoint 2010.
There is no NLB or firewall in front on this server.
If anyone has any solution to how to solve this on FIM R2/SharePoint 2010 please let me know.
Cheers!

FIM_Admin,
You could try changing the receiveTimeoutInSeconds parameter of the resourceManagementService node in your Microsoft.ResourceManagement.Service.exe.config file. However, you are warned not to do this unless instructed to by MS customer support.
