After doing some more debug I found the issue.

I have no problem to manually up the wifi with ifup and it's
working well.

But now I don't have wpa_supplicant related configuration at /etc/rc.local
hence it is not started automatically so now any association is not possible.
Do you have any idea how to fix it ? once again .... my wifi related settings are

````````````````````````
# it should first ask guessnet to find out in which network we are

mapping wlan0
     script guessnet-ifupdown
     map default: office-wifi
     map  office-wifi open unknown
     map timeout: 12
     # map init-time: 12   # for slow drivers
     map verbose: true
     map debug: true

 iface office-wifi inet dhcp
   wpa-driver nl80211
   wpa-conf /usr/local/etc/my.wpa_supplicant.conf
   test wireless  mac  00:1C:F0:3D:4C:C9
post-up  /root/bin/FIREWALL start

`````````````````````````````

at /usr/local/etc/my.wpa_supplicant.conf I have

```````````````````````````
ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev

        proto=RSN
