I’ve just installed the embedded MQTT browser in OH2.4
I’ve got this message. I tried the installation sometimes without success.
What is needed, too?
I’m using a Pi3

OH2.4 Embedded MQTT Broker is waiting for something… but what?
bundle:list|grep -i mq

See the log file. Another process is blocking the standard MQTT port. There is definitely another broker running. Or for some bizarre reasons the embedded broker started twice. But I really doubt that.
Check the command output of netstat -tulpen | grep 1883.
You were right. There was Mosquitto installed from previously tests some weeks / month ago.
I’ve removed all old packages.

I’ve removed OH2.4 broker and reinstalled. Now I have this message.
But something is there at IPv6 1883
It must be OH2.4 because after removing Mosquitto there was nothing.

Is 127.0.0.1 configured to be localhost on your system? That is required. Otherwise I don’t see a problem. The internal mqttconnection can’t establish a connection to the broker. That’s strange.
Try mosquitto_sub or any another mqtt client to connect to the broker.
But only at IPv6 address the broker seems to accept connections. How can I setup to accept on IPv4, too?

That’s normal. Coming from the broker, I have no influence on that. Will probably change with a broker update at some point (there is a new release already available).
IPv6… ok. The brokerconnection class should be IP agnostic. Apparently it isn’t. And the reason is simple: It doesn’t connect to “localhost”, it connects to “127.0.0.1”… Sigh. Could you please create a bug report on github on the eclipse smarthome project? Thanks.
The workaround is: Disable IPv6 interfaces while booting up openHAB and re-enable them after. IPv6 is the future so shouldn’t permanently be disabled.
