Just a question about mqtt-spy with TLS about mqtt-spy HOT 5 CLOSED

Hi. No, you shouldn't need any extra tools.

Have a look at https://github.com/kamilfb/mqtt-spy/blob/development/mqtt-spy-common/src/test/java/pl/baczkowicz/mqttspy/connectivity/ConnectionTestingWithMosquitto.java and https://github.com/kamilfb/mqtt-spy/tree/development/mqtt-spy-common/src/test/resources. These are unit/integration tests for TLS/SSL & mosquitto. Most are with a local instance of mosquitto and some with the public test server. There are also scripts for generating those keys and certificates.

Let me know if that works for you.

Hi Kamil, thanks for responding to my question. I am pretty sure that I have generated the ca/key files correctly because I can get messages to flow when I use mosquitto_pub & mosquitto_sub on port 8883. I have no knowledge of java so I've attempted to read your code but not really sure what I'm looking at or what I am suppose to do with the links you sent me. thanks for trying to help

Hi. I recall having a similar issue, with mosquitto_pub & sub working, but mqtt-spy not, and vice versa.

How do you generate those ca/key files?

Have a look at:
https://github.com/kamilfb/mqtt-spy/blob/development/mqtt-spy-common/src/test/resources/mosquitto/ssl/bouncy_castle/generate-client.sh
and
https://github.com/kamilfb/mqtt-spy/blob/development/mqtt-spy-common/src/test/resources/mosquitto/ssl/mosquitto_sub/generate-client.sh

Not using "-addtrust clientAuth" when generating these files made it work for mqtt-spy. I didn't spend much time looking into it though - something I'm hoping to do in the coming months. In the meantime, if you still can't get mqtt-spy to work, maybe try MQTT.fx - it's got extensive SSL/TLS support.
