Hostapd Enable Fail [RaspberryPi3] about wireless-tools HOT 2 CLOSED

got the same issue with a rpi3b+ up to date.

I need to run the commande twice to get it working

{ Error: Command failed: cat <wlan0-hostapd.conf && hostapd -B wlan0-hostapd.conf && rm -f wlan0-hostapd.conf
channel=6
hw_mode=g
interface=wlan0
ssid=RaspberryPi

i it seems that if a AP was previously running it fail, the only solution i have find for now its to put a timeout after disable the AP because there is some latency between the disable callback and the real shutdown of the AP

hostapd.disable('wlan0', function (err1) {
console.log(err1);
setTimeout(() => {
hostapd.enable(options, function (err) {
console.log('created');
console.log(err);
});
}, 2000);
});

Fixed this by removing driver from the options.
