Subscribe mqtt values from sensor and write to influxdb raises "Error stopping node: Close timed out"

Third party integrations Node-RED
1

I have a simple nodered flow with a mqtt-in node and a influxdb out node for an airgradient sensor. It works the last weeks perfect. Since the last 3 days or so there are no values anymore published to the influxdb. I can see the events and values created by the airgradient in the MQTT explorer. In node red there is no debugging ooutput anymore. I get only one error message:

23.2.2022, 14:49:58[node: Airgradient Sleep](http://homeassistant.local:8123/api/hassio_ingress/PEIiXfNPz1l1omz5mJw9UenIpCWLEhQz4g2mdacDhQ0/#)
msg : string[36]
"Error stopping node: Close timed out"

I have seen in other posts that this is an errror mainly to version 2.2.1 of node red. I am searching ideas how to find a workaround for this problem. Or: wait for the release of version 2.2.2 (which should solve that issue) for Home Assistance. Any ideas are appreciated ! Peter

I don’t understand where the problem lies. If you connect a debug to an mqtt node do the messages come in? If not delete the mqtt server in the mqtt node, deploy, then reset up the mqtt server.

When I connect a debug node to one or all of the mqtt input nodes I get only one message after deployment: “Error stopping node: Close timed out”. Before I got in the debug window the messages for each value for humidity, temperature, co2 and so on. With reconnect you mean restart the mqtt broker ?

So I made what you proposed. Looks much better now. At least I get messages from the sensors. I can not tell you why but it seems that the phaenomen is gone.
Thanks for your recommendation !
