Solved. At least for me. In addition to the rc.d file change: $ sudo mkdir /var/run/mosquitto $ sudo chown mosquitto:mosquitto /var/run/mosquitto Adjust /usr/local/etc/mosquitto/mosquitto.conf to use this new pid file location. Alter passwd file permissions: $ sudo chgrp mosquitto /usr/local/etc/mosquitto/mosquitto.passwd Modify certificate permissions: $ ls -l /us/usr/local/etc/ssl/example.org.key -rw------- 1 root wheel 1675 Apr 11 2018 /usr/local/etc/ssl/example.org.key $ sudo chgrp mosquitto /usr/local/etc/ssl/example.org.key $ sudo chmod g+r /usr/local/etc/ssl/example.org.key $ ls -l /usr/local/etc/ssl/example.org.key -rw-r----- 1 root mosquitto 1675 Apr 11 2018 /usr/local/etc/ssl/example.org.key Why all this? It seems that mosquitto is now dropping privs before writing the PID file and before reading the certificate and password files.
