Hi all,
I have updated my system to 2.4 and have a question to the MQTT Broker thing. A mosquitto is installed and working. The thing says it’ online. Everything seems to be OK.
But I can only get mqtt messages in openhab2 when i set the broker thing to the IP address (192.168.0.x), localhost or 127.0.0.1 will not work.
I’m doing the upgrades and testing at a second raspberry and after having a working configuration, I change the SD card to the primary raspi. I don’t want to change IP addresses in configs all the time.
I couldn’t disagree more.
Creating things with paperUI is more reliable than with text config.
It’s less flexible (in some cases) granted but not more reliable.
You loose self discovery and other advantages.
You don’t have to look up the syntax of some obscure setting in the docs.
It’s much easier
I use the PaperUI for ALL my things
And I use the text files for items and sitemaps
