wpa_supplicant and "Failed to open config file"

When I type:
sudo wpa_supplicant -B -i wlp0s19f2u4 -c <(wpa_passphrase "Antena" "passhere")

I receives:

Successfully initialized wpa_supplicant
Failed to open config file '/dev/fd/63', error: No such file or directory
Failed to read or parse configuration '/dev/fd/63'.

What is this? After this dhcpcd doesn't work.

Re: wpa_supplicant and "Failed to open config file"

you have to paste the output of

wpa_passphrase "Antena" "passhere"

in a wpa_supplicant.conf file in psk section http://linux.die.net/man/5/wpa_supplicant.conf

then you

sudo wpa_supplicant -B -i wlp0s19f2u4 -c wpa_supplicant.conf
