Work your mosquitto broker problem and that only. Test with mosquitto_sub and mosquitto_pub and get that to work first. Once that works, try to get weewx to subscribe.
Try removing any previous garbage your earlier attempts might have put into /run. sudo rm -r /run/mosquitto sudo systemctl start mosquitto On my ubuntu 21.10 vm permissions look like: root@ubuntu-focal:/run# ls -lagd /run/mosquitto drwxr----- 2 root 60 Dec 31 23:42 /run/mosquitto root@ubuntu-focal:/run# ls -lagd /run/mosquitto/* -rw-r--r-- 1 mosquitto 4 Dec 31 23:42 /run/mosquitto/mosquitto.pid On Friday, December 31, 2021 at 2:36:19 PM UTC-8 Eric K wrote: > No, its not working. > Running the commands with sudo still failed to generate a pid file. > Running with the default config allowed mosquitto to start and > MQTTSubscribe tried to connect but it disconnected after 5 seconds. > > When I started weewx and forced wee_reports to run, it bomed out with many > errors including MQTTSubscribe errors. > I suspect because it couldn't connect to mosquitto. > > Since the mosquitto command changed from "port" to "listener", do I have > to change the MQTTSubscribe section of weewx.conf so it calls out "listener > = 1883" rather than "port = 1883"? > > > On Friday, December 31, 2021 at 4:20:01 PM UTC-6 vince wrote: > >> So is it working ?
