MQTT does not appear to be working

TCoach · Sep 14, 2021

So, wanted to play with MQTT and see what all it offers. I've created a Mosquitto service on my Ubuntu box and am able to connect and publish from the pi with the mosquitto pub client. However, I don't see any messages coming into MQTT. I have a running subscription to "/#" so I can see all messages and am not seeing anything.

Does anyone have suggestions on how to get the MQTT interface working?

I can’t answer the specific question, but I can maybe bump the thread for you to see if we can get you some help

Did you enable mqtt with specifics in reef-pi, and reload it?

I'm having trouble getting MQTT working as well. I have my broker setup and it's working but Reef Pi keep giving me an error that "mqtt is not initialized".

I'm on version 5.2

Settings for Telemtry are:
Server: tcp://192.168.0.XX:1883 (mqtt broker address)
Username: mqtt-user (valid user on broker)
Client ID: ReefPi
Password: (correct user password for mqtt-user)
QoS: 0

Do you see any errors in the log ?
