MQTT and Ring-MQTT

Question 1 - mqtt

I have HA Core installed in docker along with various add-ons (MQTT, Node-red, Hass config). I just got my Z wave stick and I’m trying to get MQTT to recognizes devices, but it’s not detecting anything.

Below is my docker compose which seems to be working correctly as I was able to configure the MQTT integration in Home Assistant, but no devices are recognized after multiple restarts

  mosquitto:
    image: eclipse-mosquitto
    container_name: mosquitto
    restart: unless-stopped
    ports:
      - 1883:1883
    volumes:
      - /share/Appdata/mosquitto/config:/mosquitto/config
      - /share/Appdata/mosquitto/data:/mosquitto/data
      - /share/Appdata/mosquitto/log:/mosquitto/log
    environment:
      - TZ=America/Los_Angeles
    devices:
      - /dev/ttyACM0:/dev/ttyACM0 #Zwave usb location

Question 2 - ring-mqtt

I’ve also setup ring-mqtt in docker and modified the URL with the MQTT URL, but the instructions on the ring mqtt wiki aren’t entirely clear. The instructions state the the MQTT broker is in standard MQTT URL format which should be added to my config file prior to container startup:

mqtt(s)://[username[:password]@]host[:port]

For example should that be translated to:

mqtt(s)://Bruce:[email protected]:1883
##or this?
mqtt(s)://[Bruce[:Lee123]@192.168.X.X[:1883]

I’ve tried both variations and I keep getting the following error:

Problem solved. I use the wrong format for the mqtt URL as it should be something like

mqtt://Bruce:[email protected]:1883

Hi can you help me to set up, ring-mqtt.
