ERROR: Your adapter can not be a station (i.e. be connected) and an AP at the same time

Describe the bug
If I start wihotspot like this on my raspberry pi 3B+ with sudo wihotspot than this pops up:

(wihotspot-gui:5479): dbind-WARNING **: 10:16:09.237: Error retrieving accessibility bus address: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.a11y.Bus was not provided by any .service files
pkexec --user root create_ap wlan0 eth0 ' Tornax-Pi' 'ChiBaYanni16122019' --mkconfig /etc/create_ap.conf --freq-band 2.4
Config options written to '/etc/create_ap.conf'
WARN: brmfmac driver doesn't work properly with virtual interfaces and
      it can cause kernel panic. For this reason we disallow virtual
      interfaces for your adapter.

ERROR: Your adapter can not be a station (i.e. be connected) and an AP at the same time
Command not found or exited with error status

but it's also connected with an ethernet cable. So shouldn't the (in built) wifi-adapter be free?

To Reproduce

1. Connect a raspberry pi with an ethernet cable
2. ssh into it
3. execute sudo wihotspot

Expected behavior
I expected that it works.

Screenshots

The output after clicking the Create Hotspot button:

Desktop (please complete the following information):

The version should be the latest. I just installed a new raspbian image on my raspberry pi with rpi-imager.

Can you try with no-virt option enabled?

@lakinduakash I'm sorry for the late answer!!

So here are the settings:

And that's the output:

pkexec --user root create_ap wlan0 eth0 'My Raspberry Pi' 'BestPasswordEver' --mkconfig /etc/create_ap.conf --freq-band 2.4 --no-virt
Config options written to '/etc/create_ap.conf'

By the way, happy new year!

I have no way to test with raspberry pi currently. But this thread oblique/create_ap#203 has some solutions as it prints. Might be helpful.

And happy new year for you too!

Thanks for the link! I'll give it try and sorry again for letting you waiting for about 2 months.
