Running the following command, /usr/bin/wpa_passphrase, with my ESSID and Passphrse generates the following error message -

Passphrase must be 8..63 characters

My router generated a 64 character WPA2 passphrase. I cannot adjust. Please advise.

First off, if you are in fact using Ubuntu 6.10, you need to upgrade to something supported. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Ubuntu_releases#Version_timeline) That version is no longer supported (since 2008)

Anyway, I think your problem is that you need to use the WPA2 (Preshared Key) instead of WPA2 (Passphrase). Try that and see if it helps. If not let me know.

My apologies for the typo. I'm running Ubuntu 9.10.

I used the PSK instead of the passphrase. Same result. Still can't stay connected. Here's my new log:

I have the same problem at Ubuntu 12.04, wicd 1.7.2.3 . The problem started to appear after I changed my WPA2 password to 64 hex digits. SSID is all regular ASCII letters, no spaces. Sometimes it connects, sometimes doesn't. I wonder if there is a security risk (PSK generation failed, falling back to wireless key?!) and if any developer cares.
