MQTT Could not setup Dependencies

LavaGlass · June 15, 2017, 11:59am

Hello.

I have been tearing my hair out about this issue! The issue I am having is MQTT is not working. Specifically I get a warning in the Home Assistant web interface saying.

The following components and platforms could not be set up:
mqtt
light.mqtt
switch.mqtt
Please check your config

I know my config is correct as it was working before. This issue arose when I installed open z wave and a Z- Stick but before that it was working fine. My home assistant log says the following.

If anyone can help me with this I would greatly appreciate it

Connection issue…wrong broker address, port, etc.

muekno · December 26, 2017, 8:49am

I have on HA system 0.57 that I set up manualy based on Debian Stretch external mqtt running fine, but it wouldn’t update. So I set up a second 0.60 based on HASSBIAN, installed the mqtt broker with the provided script. Check config says ok, but after restarting HA I get the obove error. I am shure Broker address port are corect. the only changes I made to the default script was adding mqtt.

Thanks for any hint

better?
remember check_config returns no errors

Slightly better, but you should use codeblock if you post your code. This keeps the formatting which is essential. Use the ` sign 3 times on an empty line before and after the code or use the < / > button.

Is mosquitto starting automatically? There have been some issues installing it but I think it was fixed in the latest hassbian image. Are you 100% sure it’s running properly. Don’t you use a username / password?

muekno · December 27, 2017, 10:03am

I’ quite shure mosquitto runs fine I habe a password file but anonymous_login true i can subscripe and publish from the command line without username and passowrd. in configuration.yam the 2 spaces indent is double checked. did quite a lot with the 0.57 installation, mostly worked, I am a beginner in HA but not a novice. I’am working in IT,PC Microcontrollers RASPI Arduino and programming since many years. That should not mean I am perfect, at least not at HA.

Thanks

See if MQTT is running.

The way I do this is by using MQTTBox (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/mqttbox/kaajoficamnjijhkeomgfljpicifbkaf?utm_source=chrome-app-launcher-info-dialog)

I connect to my Pi’s IP at port 1883 and see if it connects. If it does MQTT is working then try subscribing to one of your sensors listed above to see if you can read the data. If MQTTBox cant connect to your MQTT server then it is not running.

If it wont connect SSH into your Pi and run this command. Then try to reconnect using MQTTBox.

sudo systemctl start mosquitto.service

Hope this helps.

sjee · December 27, 2017, 1:22pm

Change:
broker: locahost

into
broker: localhost

muekno · December 28, 2017, 8:05pm

Sorry but it was not the typo, tried with 127.0.0.1 and correct writing too. Thanks for the help.
In the meantime I did a complete new manual setup (latest Rasbian and following https://home-assistant.io/docs/installation/raspberry-pi/ )on my R2 everything works fine as it should. Hope update will work too

Happy new Year
