mosquitto has support for pid files, and many systems use them. Whether they are normal and the right thing, or last year's plan depends on how your system deals with init things. However this is unlikely to make things work or not work, just ma make the init system unhappy about statusing and stopping mosquitto. > It appears that the mosquitto install is properly starting as a daemon (I > see it in the process table in TOP) and running without errors in the > /var/log/mosquitto/mosquitto.log, so I think I'm ready to move on to > configuring MQTTSubscribe. No, you are ready to use mosquitto_sub on the machine you want to run MQTTSubscribe and see if you are seeing the data from the command-line client. Pause to reconfigure mosquitto to listen beyond localhost if you need to, to figure out what you are doing about 1883 vs 8883/tls, and acls. Any time you can test at an intermedidate point, you make things simpler to figure out. You can also use mosquitto_pub on the machine that is supposed to inject mqtt messsages. Note that mosquitto silently drops topic writes that are not allowed by the acl. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
