[quote="I created them both and changed the fileowner to mosquitto as you suggested.
[/quote]
How could I create them and how could I change the fileowner?
mkdir /var/log/mosquitto
touch /var/log/mosquitto/mosquitto.log
Did you setup a password?
yes when I installed mosquitto with the config tool
Can you post your broker code

so this was my config so far:
UID: mqtt:broker:openHAB
label: MQTT Broker
thingTypeUID: mqtt:broker
configuration:
lwtQos: 0
publickeypin: true
keepAlive: 60
clientid: 3b875904-088a-49da-8300-72ccd1447766
qos: 0
reconnectTime: 60000
host: localhost
secure: false
certificatepin: true
lwtRetain: true
enableDiscovery: true
with adding username and password it connects now to the broker again
UID: mqtt:broker:openHAB
label: MQTT Broker
thingTypeUID: mqtt:broker
configuration:
lwtQos: 0
publickeypin: true

clientid: 4b8ce49d-81fe-410a-bd13-73973849eb25

qos: 0
reconnectTime: 60000
host: localhost
lwtRetain: true
enableDiscovery: true
username: openhabian
still I didn’t try to restart the rpi yet. Will do that as a next step. Also I discovered this thread with similar problems described for oh2: Openhabian - Mosquitto MQTT failed to start - #41 by mstormi

Username and Password dose help to get it going.
Now how did you install openhabian and mosquitto so the team can see what went wrong. This is an issue @mstormi will fix if he has enough information to fix it. He is likely looking for the steps you took to install openhaian.
Can you both also goto help and about / technical details / View details / copy and past contents here.

Hello, can you please help me? Openhab3 MQTT system broker connection screen is blank.
We would need more information to be able to help you @haybolat
What broker are your using?
How did you install your broker?
Is it this screen that is blank?
What broker are your using?
Mosquitto
How did you install your broker?
I installed it via openhab-config
Is it this screen that is blank?
Yes
I reinstalled openhab3 2 times. It didn’t happen again, I don’t know where I’m making a mistake.
Ok that doesn’t look good
You don’t need a system broker to get it working.
Install the MQTT Binding if you haven’t already then create a thing /broker
Yes, I just reinstalled. I did what he said before installing mosquitto. Thank you very much.
Why is this happening? is this a system error?
I assume the main issue is that mosquitto changed something and now openHABian needs to catch up in the way it is installed but thats just a guess,
The System broker page being blank is a new issue and if more people experience it the an github issue should be raised.
Understood. Thank you very much.
My MQTT has a communication error. Can I set up a broker in Openhab 3 from the binding or do I have to install Mosquitto, etc?
Thanks
