Hass.io with Mosquitto broker 4.2 and Sonoff TasmotaPOW

Mourkain · May 1, 2019, 4:20pm

I want to AutoDiscover my Sonoff POW.

I installed Mosquitto broker 4.2 with this config.

{
  "logins": [
    {
      "username": "xxx",
      "password": "xxx"
    }
  ],
  "anonymous": false,
  "quiet_logs": true,
  "customize": {
    "active": true,
    "folder": "mosquitto"
  },
  "certfile": "fullchain.pem",
  "keyfile": "privkey.pem"
}

I followed the Instructions and did the ACLS Stuff.

Added a new User and also added the user in my SonoffPow.
On my Sonoff i did SetOption19 1 with this LOG.

I also have the feeling that I tried so many different things. Currently I don’t know what to do next, to get it work

Any Tips or typically made mistakes?

Cheers,

When setting up the MQTT broker in Hass frontend page: Configuration/Integrations/Mqtt.
Did you tick the check box to enable discovery?

I missed that once as well.
To remedy the mistake I just saved my config files and removed the MQTT broker and integration and reinstalled With the discovery box ticked.

Hope it helps.

Yeah, I have checked the Box and I also Disabled and Enabled the Integration.

Maybe I should try to completely reinstall the Mosquitto Broker.

I added this to my configuration.yaml

mqtt:
broker: core-mosquitto
username: ***
password: ***

I thought this isn‘t necessary anymore…

And I also made a firmware upgrade via the WebUI on the Tasmota, but it‘s still on 6.5.0

Ahh and i updated my Configurator to 3.3…

I dont‘t know why, but it works now =D
