I get the following mosquitto mqtt log entries over and over again. Does anyone have any idea what they mean?
Running Hass.io 0.84.3 with mosquitto mqtt broker add-on
1546273478: New connection from 172.30.32.1 on port 1883.
[INFO] found MYUSERNAME on local database
1546273479: New client connected from 172.30.32.1 as mosqpub|2313-de3cd379-r (c1, k60, u'MYUSERNAME').
1546273479: Client mosqpub|2313-de3cd379-r disconnected.
My log is filled with these lines.
It means one of your components is posting via mosquitto_pub.
One of my components? What could that be? Is there a way to find out which one?
You could install an MQTT client like MQTTfx on your PC and subscribe to all topics ( # ).
Does it matter? Is there a problem with your system?
No, there isn’t. I was just looking for a place to check mqtt messages are being received. I figured they would show up in the add-on logs. Apparently they don’t, but I was confused by the log entries.
I installed an mqtt sniffer on my phone and that works for me. Thanks @tom_l for the tip.
