Actually, there may be 3 or 4 attempts, but during a short period.
Also, I'm not sure, because I didn't get the output
print 'Starting automatic reconnect process'
in the logs, but this may be another issue...
AutoConnect can be called in 2 places:
1.
if not daemon.GetGUIOpen():
print 'Killing wireless connection to switch to wired...'
wireless.DisconnectWireless()
daemon.AutoConnect(False, reply_handler=lambda *a:None,
error_handler=lambda *a:None)
return self.update_state(misc.NOT_CONNECTED)
which is not possible when the GUI is open (thus this is not
what I could observe in some tests), and anyway the output
of the print is not in the logs.
2.
if daemon.ShouldAutoReconnect():
print 'Starting automatic reconnect process'
self.last_reconnect_time = time.time()
self.reconnect_tries += 1
# If we just lost a wireless connection, try to connect to that
# network again. Otherwise just call Autoconnect.
cur_net_id = wireless.GetCurrentNetworkID(self.iwconfig)
if from_wireless and cur_net_id > -1:
# make sure disconnect scripts are run
# before we reconnect
print 'Disconnecting from network'
wireless.DisconnectWireless()
print 'Trying to reconnect to last used wireless ' + \
'network'
wireless.ConnectWireless(cur_net_id)
else:
daemon.AutoConnect(True, reply_handler=reply_handle,
error_handler=err_handle)
Same issue with the output of the print.
But the log system in wicd seems broken. I've just reported another
bug:
