Hi guys,
I just got my MQTTMysensor gateway working without any problem but now I have a different problem, The thing is that I tried to add an item, door window sensor, to my sitemap but I just can’t get it working. I spend all day testing and serching to get it work but I just can’t, so I try here.
My item looks like this,
Contact door "MQTT [MAP(door.map):%s]" {mqtt="<[homeAuto:homeAuto-out/101/3/1/0/V_TRIPPED:state:MAP(door.map)]"}
Anyone that can see any problem with this setup?
I don’t see anything wrong with your item line, but you don’t say exactly what is going wrong, so its hard to help.
Is the MQTT message getting to the broker from your gateway? The broker log will tell you this.
If so, is the MQTT message getting to openhab? The openhab.log log will tell you this.
If so, is OH interpreting the message as updating the item. The event log will tell you this.
Trace back and get some more information, and we may be able to help.
Good Luck!
I guess you’r on the right track. This is my mosquitto.log

Thank you Sir for helping
Hi,
Your mosquitto.log says that it stops to work. You should find the reason.
Yeah, to find the reason would make it easier to solve it. The problem is that I’m not used to work with mosquitto or linux so I’m trying the best I can but it a’int working, no matter what I do.
Anyone know this issue? How should the conf file look like and do I have to do any other configurations after installing mosquitto?
Thanks
Hi,
Now I have reinstalled MQTT and now my MQTT.log looks like this,
1469508265: New connection from 192.168.254.228 on port 1883.
1469508265: New client connected from 192.168.254.228 as homeAutoMQTT (c1, k15).
1469508300: Socket error on client homeAutoMQTT, disconnecting.
1469508300: New connection from 192.168.254.228 on port 1883.
1469508300: New client connected from 192.168.254.228 as homeAutoMQTT (c1, k15).
1469508334: Socket error on client homeAutoMQTT, disconnecting.
As you can see, it connects to my Arduino Mysensors MQTT Gateway, then it disconnects and then it continue like this in a loop for ever.
try to publish something using mosquitto_pub via command, it helps to understand if your mosquitto is ok and in that case something is wrong with your gateway.
Yeah, that one works. So the problem is in my gateway? It is an arduino Uno with Ethernet shield running Mysensors MQTTW5100 gateway. The source can you see below.
/**
* The MySensors Arduino library handles the wireless radio link and protocol
* between your home built sensors/actuators and HA controller of choice.
* The sensors forms a self healing radio network with optional repeaters. Each
* repeater and gateway builds a routing tables in EEPROM which keeps track of the
* network topology allowing messages to be routed to nodes.

*******************************
*
* REVISION HISTORY
* Version 1.0 - Henrik Ekblad
*
* DESCRIPTION
* The W5100 MQTT gateway sends radio network (or locally attached sensors) data to your MQTT broker.
* The node also listens to MY_MQTT_TOPIC_PREFIX and sends out those messages to the radio network
*
* LED purposes:
* - To use the feature, uncomment WITH_LEDS_BLINKING in MyConfig.h
* - RX (green) - blink fast on radio message recieved. In inclusion mode will blink fast only on presentation recieved
* - TX (yellow) - blink fast on radio message transmitted. In inclusion mode will blink slowly
* - ERR (red) - fast blink on error during transmission error or recieve crc error
*
* See http://www.mysensors.org/build/esp8266_gateway for wiring instructions.
* nRF24L01+ ESP8266
* VCC VCC
* CE GPIO4
* CSN/CS GPIO15
* SCK GPIO14
* MISO GPIO12
* MOSI GPIO13
*
* Not all ESP8266 modules have all pins available on their external interface.
* This code has been tested on an ESP-12 module.
* The ESP8266 requires a certain pin configuration to download code, and another one to run code:
* - Connect REST (reset) via 10K pullup resistor to VCC, and via switch to GND ('reset switch')
* - Connect GPIO15 via 10K pulldown resistor to GND
* - Connect CH_PD via 10K resistor to VCC
* - Connect GPIO2 via 10K resistor to VCC
* - Connect GPIO0 via 10K resistor to VCC, and via switch to GND ('bootload switch')
*
* Inclusion mode button:
* - Connect GPIO5 via switch to GND ('inclusion switch')
*
* Hardware SHA204 signing is currently not supported!
*
* Make sure to fill in your ssid and WiFi password below for ssid & pass.
