Are the spaces you're adding for the html_root, belchertown root url, and mqtt topic intentional for this forum post? If not, remove those extra spaces they as they will cause a problem.
Do you need to run weewx on the vps host? I don't think you need to. weewx on your Pi will generate the webpages needed, then it can FTP or SCP those files to the VPS host automatically. Then MQTT on vps host will help broker the data. So the config you have will go on the weewx.conf on your Pi as that information will get processed into the webpage that weewx will build. Port 1883 is MQTT's port; not weewx. Read through this post on how to setup MQTT <https://go.obrienlabs.net/mqttbroker> and testing it for valid data and see if it helps you understand the difference between the two systems. Also read through this post on how weewx transfers <http://weewx.com/docs/usersguide.htm#If_the_server_is_on_a_different_machine>the generated webpages to the remote web server (your vps) On Wednesday, February 26, 2020 at 9:40:22 AM UTC-5, Gert Andersen wrote: > > Hi > > Thanks for your answer, I'll try that. > > I'm a little bit unsure about the configuration and whether it's right. > > On the rpi / weewx I have installed the weewx / mqtt extension to send > data on port 1883. > > On vps_host I have installed weewx as well as Belchertown.
