I am pulling my hair out – though it doesn’t fix anything :slight_smile: OH | mqttitude binding installed openhab.conf changed to reflect lat lon radius restarted OH tried the set-up the examples in the wiki… no luck OwnTracks is sending messages, has regions set-up… and seems to work just fine…

Hang on - your item binding is using mosquitto as the broker name, but it looks like the MQTT binding is named mymosquitto in your log above?

Thanks for getting back to me. Short answer: No. I have a simple (default) mqtt set-up that works… Nothing but default settings in OH and mosquitto; no password, etc. Exception from default: I do have a second listener defined on port 8883; though TLS) OH and mqtt is working; e.g. 2017-01-17 1…

Yep so checking the source code (which I wrote many years ago ;)) there is definitely trace logging configured to help debug these sorts of issues. Any message received by the binding subscription is logged via; logger.trace("Message received on topic {}: {}", topic, decoded); The fact you are not…

Thanks… will do… though I do not know what to look for, this is my entry: <logger name="org.openhab.binding.mqttitude" level="TRACE" /> since these entries do work (enabled disabled weather and exec):  <!--…

That logging config looks fine. I just checked again and the only place that there is trace logging is inside the MQTT consumer, meaning if you don’t receive any messages you won’t see anything extra in the logging. So it perhaps means that for some reason openHAB isn’t receiving those pubs to that…

I think I did not specify a user / pw for OH to connect to. my openhab.conf mqtt section is: mqtt:mymosquitto.url=tcp://localhost:1883 mqtt:mymosquitto.clientId=openhab mqtt:mymosquitto.qos=0 mqtt:mymosquitto.retain=true mqtt:mymosquitto.async=true there is also no longer a mqttitude config (rem…

When I add a debug item that subscribes to messages on the same topic I get messages so that would, in my case, rule out a configuration error in mqtt.conf. I haven’t moved the phone out of the geofence or spoofed any MQTT-messages so I in order to confirm that the MQTT configuration works I subscr…

I personally am running 1.8.3. Sounds like Fredrik has got his issue sorted. Since you have proven that your MQTT broker is receiving those messages I think the only thing left is your item config (but I am not sure what). Can you post your full items config currently? I would suggest paring it rig…
