Sorry,

my mistake: it is possible to set the client id by using "id=" in the config.
But this fact is not in the documentation https://github.com/FragJage/MqttDaemon/wiki/Configuration

Hi,

my MQTT Server VerneMQ rejects MqttOwfs to login, because of an empty client id:

vernemq    | 16:59:38.275 [warning] can't authenticate client {[],<<"anon-/4fHUQ6JX7jPeF4/r+hv+XflueY=">>} from 172.25.0.1:49058 due to invalid_credentials
vernemq    | 16:59:38.376 [warning] empty client id not allowed in mqttv3 {[],undefined}

In the documentation of MqttDaemon I see no way, to set the client_id, correct!?
Cloud it be possible to either implement it or set it to a fixe value like "mqttowfs"

You can see here http://docs.oasis-open.org/mqtt/mqtt/v3.1.1/os/mqtt-v3.1.1-os.html in section 3.1 that "All but the Client identifier are optional" => you need to set the client_id

Hello, first of I want to thank you for writing this service.
I have modified it so that I can transfer all the counter values and temp values to mqtt and than I visualize it with grafana.

My problem is that i want to start it as a service.

So I added a file /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/mqttowfs.service
But this doesnt start the mqttowfs process on boot.
Do you have an example service file? That would help me a lot.
Maybe add it to your already fantastic wiki.
Thank you very much
Tom

Dear François,

First I want to wish you a good new year and may you have no corona or your family.
I would like to ask you something. As I am using your service now to feed my grafana, I noticed that the service stopped exacly at 2:01 AM every day. As it turns out I forgot that my small network router that runs openwrt reboots at that time every day. This device has as a sole purpose to run as an owserver. It is connected to a usb->onewire adaptor. The owserver server running on it servers several openhab instances and some RRD loggings by unix scripting. It is not so stable over time so I had to insert a cron entry that it restarts.

My question is now is it configurable as I looked in the code that does the owfs <-> socket (https://github.com/FragJage/owfscpp) I see this code :

try
{
    m_OwfsSock.Send(sendBuffer, total);
}
catch(SimpleSock::Exception &e)
{
    if(!m_Persistence) throw;
    m_PersistenceMode = PERSISTENCE_RETRY;
    Connect();
    m_OwfsSock.Send(sendBuffer, total);
}

So I guess when the connection is lost it should reconnect if the mode is PERSISTENCE_RETRY.
But looking at the code of SimpleSock.cpp the open will fail as the owserver is unavailble as the host is restarting.

As a solution the main program loop could handle the error but not crash (deamon loop?) and so when the owserver is again active recover.

I see this as a great improvement because not only the owserver process can become temporily unavailable, but the network can go partially down or something else.

Could you please look into this, if there is a simple solution to it?
A simple test would be to setup a owfs server on a raspberry pi for example or a linux machine, stopping it and then on the other machine running mqttowfs seeing is the service stays alive and reconnects when the owfs becomes available.
It is also the same problem when the mqtt becomes tempory unavailable I think, but for my situation the mqttowfs service runs on the same host as the mosquitto service.

Greetings

Tom

hi,

can you write a simple installation guid?

br

I get a failure on connect.

I dont use TLS normally for my MQTT server, just running clear text.

Is it possible to connect using non-TLS ?

Hi,

it was cool, to set the retain and QOS flag for global section and disable for each devices, too.

Hi,
I tried to add VAD value of an DS2438 but I'm was not able to manage this.
All other data are transmitted perfectly.
Is this possible by adding a section in the Mqttowfs.conf ?
If so - may I kindly ask for an example?
Thanks

Make fails, any idea why?

I just compiled MqttOwfs , as I'm looking for a solution to send mqtt messages to Home assistant on state changes of ds2408 latch.ALL, ...

not yet sure it will work, new to HA & MQTT https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/mqtt/discovery/

Now, I don't see any messages published subscribing to the topic with mqttlens
(while I see them if I manually publish from homeassistant)

I tried lg debugging
https://github.com/FragJage/MqttDaemon/wiki/Configuration

[mqttlog] enable=true level=7

sudo MqttOwfs -restart root@DietPi:/# 2021-01-23 20:45:23 ERROR MqttOwfs.cpp l.136 DevicesConfigure Device 'mqttlog' is improperly formatted, it must contain a '/'.

So the mqttlog section is not recognized ?

I can see the client is registered in the mosquito broker. no messages there either though not sure

owserver reading is ok

Hi,

due to the SimpleSock TCP library on which this project is based, it is apparently not possible to specify a hostname instead of an IP address in the [owfs] section of the configuration file.
It would make sense if this were possible, because not all environments have fixed IP addresses.

hi,

is it possible to use Authentication with Username and Password at the MQTT Broker? I tried several different ways, but no one seems to work:

export MQTT_C_CLIENT_USERNAME=myuser
export MQTT_C_CLIENT_USERNAME=mypassword

server=myuser:[email protected]

server=127.0.0.1
username=myuser
password=mypassword

Hi,

it was cool, to set the refresh interfall for devices, too.

Like this:
[owfs]
server=192.168.10.58
port=4304
devicesinterval=5
valuesinterval=4

[28.FF633A751603/temperature9]
displayname = TemperatureSalon
round = 1
devicesinterval=1
valuesinterval=1
uncached= true
