wpa_passphrase is bugged: so If you have generate your psk key with it, the passphrase entered is wrong, and the connection is rejected.
I generated the psk key from my "essid" and my "passphrase" with another tool, on the internet (not secure but it was to check it) : the wifi connection runs immediately! the address: http://www.wireshark.org/tools/wpa-psk.html
There is also a python script to generate an passphrase, not tried: http://www.juanjoconti.com.ar/files/python/fu/generator-psk.py.html

Please try what I did and tell me if your connection runs!

A few questions more:
- Are there other tools to generate the key ?
- Where is the bug with wpa_passphrase ?

PS: I used wpa_supplicant v0.6.9
