Xbian working as an Access Point for WLAN0

[duno]

Hi, i have a question about Xbian working as an Access Point on an RPI2.

I Installed build-essential, htop, mc, hostapd, bind9, nslint, isc-dhcp-server, apache2, squid3, openssh-server, ntp, locate, nmap, tcpdump, wireshark, psmisc, tree, vim, apt-file, aptitude, hwinfo, lsscsi, lvm2, mdadm, xfsprogs, cups, nfs-kernel-server, samba, cryptsetup, rsync, incron and autofs

LAN=WAN (Router)
WLAN= AP with WPS2

First Problem:
lvm2 (2.02.111-2.2) wird eingerichtet ...
[....] Setting up LVM Volume Groups... No volume groups found
done.
update-initramfs: deferring update (trigger activated)
liblvm2cmd2.02:armhf (2.02.111-2.2) wird eingerichtet ...
Trigger für libc-bin (2.19-18+deb8u1) werden verarbeitet ...
Trigger für initramfs-tools (0.120) werden verarbeitet ...
update-initramfs: Not updating initramfs.
Trigger für systemd (215-17+deb8u2) werden verarbeitet ...

I got an error:

Code:

[ ok ] Stopping advanced IEEE 802.11 management: hostapd.
[FAIL] Starting advanced IEEE 802.11 management: hostapd failed!

journalctl told me nothing and there is no /var/log/daemon.log

What is the problem? And how can I figure out by myself?

BTW: I do not like to BRIDGE from ETH0 to WLAN0, is that my problem?

Ok, it is working like a charm. I am able to connect clients via wlan0 with bind9 and isc-dhcp-server, next step is DNSSEC and DDNS.

But, in the moment I only can use dmesg to control/read iptables-rules.

That's not so pretty/nice.

I need some help with the journalctl.
Please, can someone help?

journalctl does not work because upstart is used.

So please install and run a logger (syslog, syslog-ng, rsyslog [1]) for having syslogs.


[1] I'm using rsyslog and redirecting all messages to my server

Why do some people say it works and others don't? I will test this problem.
