Ok, there's a few more things not quite right. 1. MQTT is very picky about it's config file. Change your myconfig.conf so that there is no space between listener 1883 and protocol mqtt. See my post from last night above a few.
listener 1883 protocol mqtt Restart your mosquitto - or to be safe, restart your MQTT server. 2. Once it's back up and weewx says it's posting, can you verify from your computer that MQTT is wokring? You can use a program like MQTT Spy <https://github.com/eclipse/paho.mqtt-spy/releases/download/1.0.0/mqtt-spy-1.0.0.jar> on Windows if you have Java installed. 3. In MQTT, the # is only used for debugging. You really don't want to publish or subscribe to this special topic. Under [[MQTT]] change topic = weather/weewx Under Belchertown [[[Extras]]] change mqtt_topic = weather/weewx/loop Restart weewx On Thursday, December 27, 2018 at 7:36:18 PM UTC-5, Scott Grayban wrote: > Ok getting close..... > > in EXTRAS I have > > mqtt_enabled = 1 > mqtt_host = 192.168.0.4 > mqtt_topic = weather/# > mqtt_port = 1883 > mqtt_ssl = 0 > disconnect_live_website_visitor = 1800000 > > > which now is giving *Failed connecting to the weather station.
