Mosquitto Not Accepting Autenticated Connections After Reboot

Morning All

After recent upgrades I’ve noticed that my Hassbian build with Mosquitto wont accept authenticated connections to Mosquitto after a reboot.

I need to run ‘sudo mosquitto -c /etc/mosquitto/mosquitto.conf’ to fire up mosquitto after a reboot and then it accepts connections.

I suspect its tied to the mosquitto.pid file in ‘/var/run/mosquitto.pid’ not being formed correctly to automatically start up the mosquitto daemon after reboot.

I’m using the current version of Hassbian, and I’ve run ‘git pull’ on the ‘/home/pi/hassbian-scripts’. And re installed Mosquitto using ‘sudo ./hassbian-scripts/install_mosquitto.sh’ but still no luck getting the mosquitto daemon working after reboot?

I’m hoping someone else has encountered this and has a workaround.

Cheers

Yeah that suggestion fixed my issues with Mosquitto not starting after reboot:

sudo systemctl enable mosquitto.service

then

sudo systemctl start mosquitto.service

to check if it is running:

sudo systemctl status mosquitto.service
