[SOLVED] Mqtt (owntracks) not working since latest upgrade

Setup, Configuration and Use Runtime

All,

I upgraded OH2 yesterday (SNAPSHOT on openhabian offline).

Unfortunately iphone positioning using mosquitto (owntracks) does not work anymore.

I have mqtt1, action-mqtt and owntracks (mqttitude1) installed, but I don’t see any mqtt related log entries anymore (before the upgrade everything was running fine).

First I thought it’s related to a missing tcp binding, which I did not place in addons.cfg before, but that didn’t help.

Something else I might have missed?

Even after setting the log in karaf to debug:
log:set DEBUG org.openhab.binding.mqttitude1
and
log:set DEBUG org.openhab.binding.mqttitude to be on the safe side :wink:

I don’t see any mqtt message except the update after reboot from the persistence.

So obviously mqttitude does not even start!?

I recognized that there is a mqttitude.cfg I did not need before, but this is obviously not the issue as I am working with Regions defined on my cell phone’s owntracks app…

For a short test I just copied org.openhab.binding.mqttitude-1.9.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
from
/usr/share/openhab2/runtime/system/org/openhab/binding/org.openhab.binding.mqttitude/1.9.0-SNAPSHOT/
to
/usr/share/openhab2/addons/

Which led to:

So it was obviously already in place… :frowning:

After removing the jar from “addons” I can see mqttitude in the openhab.log:
2016-12-26 14:25:30.871 [DEBUG] [org.openhab.binding.mqttitude ] - BundleEvent INSTALLED - org.openhab.binding.mqttitude

And the services are registered on my mosquitto:

2016-12-26 14:25:47.820 [DEBUG] [.mqttitude.internal.MqttitudeBinding] - Registering Mqttitude consumer for owntracks/mosquitto/DNAs_iPhone/event (on mosquitto)

I did the same with binding.mqtt.jar and io.transport.mqtt and got entries in the openhab.log after that.
I am confused…

It really looks like it should work - I don’t know why it’s NOT … :frowning:

I just checked one thing and uninstalled the mqtt.action.binding.
Owntracks started working right away!!!
So there must be a bug.

If someone needs more debug logs to localize this, just let me know.
