The publishing is not a problem, but that is not in the skin. As I said, I have tried nearly any combination of config, all to no avail.
I may have to look at a different MQTT host, one that does not require username and password for all connections as it seems that is not working in the Belchertown skin.

I've attached a file with sanitized excerpts of my weewx.conf file showing the stanzas related to: 1. MQTT (publishing) - which specifies a username and password but not websocket (port 8883 - SSL not websocket) 2. Belchertown Highcharts 3. Belchertown (subscribing) - which specifies websockets but no username/password (port 9001 - SSL and websocket) You'll need to check with Pat, but I expect he saw no reason to lock down the subscriptions with username/password when programming his skin, only locking down the publishing (which is done by MWall's MQTT extension). I think the rationale is you don't care who sees the output (after all, it's being published on an open web site), but you don't want any unauthorized uploading of data which you'll be outputting and displaying to others. So, if the MQTT broker requires a username/password for subscribing over websockets, I don't know if the skin provides for that. I assume you've tried to prepend <username>:<password>@ to the host name in the Belchertown Extras stanza without success. Hopefully Pat can weigh in here. phil On Monday, October 8, 2018 at 4:54:41 PM UTC-4, G Hammer wrote: Do you connect the client (skin) via websockets or any other way using a username and password?

My Mosquiutto MQTT broker is set up requiring a username and password for publishing. Additionally it has TLS/SSL implemented (with Let's Encrypt certificates). It allows subscribing anonymously and also runs Websockets so that it can feedthe Belchertown skin. I used Pat's MQTT <https://obrienlabs.net/how-to-setup-your-own-mqtt-broker/> "tutorial" to do this.

I have tried several different ways of configuring the skin and it fails to connect or it shows 'Connecting to weather station real time data' forever without connecting. The data is being sent to the server fine and I have subscribed to it using client software (see below). Thanks for any input, I'm at a loss here. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to a topic in the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
