MQTT mosquitto problems

[rednas]

Hello,

I am trying to make zigbee2mqtt working on my raspberry pi.
I installed mosquitto and zigbee2mqtt, but it looks like my mosquitto isn't working right.
Trying to test mosquitto with mosquitto_sub and mosquitto_pub throws me this error: Error: Connection refused
However, when I first type mosquitto -d, it starts to work. But in the way I want it to use it should start automatically and not by first giving that command.
Does someone know how to fix this?

Thanks!

When installed, there should be a file called mosquitto.service in /etc/systemd/system
If that is the case, start it with sudo systemctl start mosquitto.service
This should start the service, even after a reboot

There is no such a file in that folder. So something must have gone wrong during installation?
How can I fix it?

Something must have gone wrong during installation?

I installed mosquitto on my PI systems (debian Stretch) as follows

Code: Select all

sudo wget http://repo.mosquitto.org/debian/mosquitto-repo.gpg.key
sudo apt-key add mosquitto-repo.gpg.key
sudo apt-get install mosquitto
sudo apt-get install mosquitto-clients
sudo update-rc.d mosquitto enable
sudo update-rc.d mosquitto defaults
sudo service mosquitto status

If you already did the first 4 steps then the last 3 steps should do the job. Otherwise uninstall and do all above steps.

I tried reinstalling it. However, my Domoticz stopped working when I enabled the Zigbee2MQTT hardware, so I went looking for errors etc.
I followed this once again: https://koenkk.github.io/zigbee2mqtt/ge ... 2mqtt.html
The page states:
Output should look like:

Code: Select all

pi@raspberry:/opt/zigbee2mqtt $ systemctl status zigbee2mqtt.service

However, this is what I get:

Code: Select all

I am missing these log lines and the Loaded part is different as well.
What am I doing wrong?
