Are you sure that's the right SSID?  According to your log, it's not
showing up in the scan:

It only sees SSIDs of "otherdomain1" (using WPA1) and "otherdomain2"
(using either no encryption, or WEP), not "mydomain".

Maybe you need to set ap_scan=2 if the SSID IE is not being put into the
beacons?  Read the example config file, though, because you'll need to
do other stuff if you set ap_scan=2.
