After upgrading to 0.81.2 all my Tasmota flashed Sonoff disappeared

[Klagio]

Not sure what it is, I can connect to my mosquitto server (using windoiws programs) just fine

in the log I see this

The Sonoff works perfectly (if I type 192.168.1.xxx I get the webserver of Tasmota)

HA is not connecting to the broker. What version did you upgrade from?

[Klagio]

from 0.80.3 to 0.81.x

HASSIO

[Klagio]

this is my config in mosquitto HASSIO addon. In HASSIO addon log I see the devices are connected to the mosquitto

{
  "plain": true,
  "plain_websockets": true,
  "ssl": false,
  "ssl_websockets": false,
  "anonymous": true,
  "logins": [
    {
      "username": "",
      "password": ""
    }
  ],

    "active": true,
    "folder": "mosquitto"
  },
  "certfile": "fullchain.pem",
  "keyfile": "privkey.pem"
}

this the log (just restarted the addon)

homeassistant.exceptions.HomeAssistantError: Error talking to MQTT: The client is not currently connected

The solution is to change from

mqtt:
  broker: core-mosquitto

to

mqtt:
  broker: 192.168.1.10  # core-mosquitto

Very strange.

Thanks to this post

Configuring OwnTracks/MQTT

Ok, figured it out. After much poking, it looks like I need to use the internal IP address for the Pi. Not “127.0.0.1”, not “localhost”, not external IP, not external host name. It means connecting to the MQTT broker over non-SSL, but that’s ok. I simply don’t forward that port. So from outside, only SSL connections work. From inside, it allows unencrypted. Here’s the relevant config, in case anyone else runs into this issue: mqtt: broker: XX.XX.XX.XX port: 1883 username: !secret m…

[Juliean_Galak]

Note that my solution was for a mosquitto broker, not for the built-in mqtt, not sure what the OP is using.

[Klagio]

I am using mosquito from hassio addon.

Please note I had a DNS issue, most probably the cause of the problem
