Scrambled UI - not reading sensors

[Kurt]

Hi all,
I've installed MyController on Intel Edison (x86 system). This worked successfully few months back when I tested but with 0.0.2-Alpha5 I get scrambled UI and the controller is not showing any activity towards the sensors. The log looks fine, serial port is discovered and serial gateway attached ...
Please see screenshots & status page readout.

If you try with old database it will not work. Database upgrade will not support on latest releases. You should start from fresh database.

It looks like browser cash issue. Kindly try with 0.0.2-alpha6. If you still face the issue, refresh (press F5 from your keyboard) your browser. If no success clear your browser cache.

Thx!
Turned out to be a combination of cached data and a power delivery problem at my gateway. All working fine now.
Any hints at how to test the (guess alpha) MQTT broker?

@Kurt To use MySensors.org 1.6 dev branch MQTT gateway we should(I guess) have a MQTT broker. So I have added inbuilt MQTT broker to provide easy setup for users. Two options available for MQTT broker.

• Use MyController.org MQTT broker (by default will be enabled, configuration will be available in mycontroller/conf/mycontroller.properties). You can modify or use default port number(1883)
• Use external MQTT broker. In this case if you use external MQTT broker on the same machine, you should disable MQTT broker of MyController.org.

You have to configure MQTT client details here mycontroller/conf/mycontroller.properties

you have to change the following lines based on MySensors.org MQTT gateway configuration

mcc.gateway.mqtt.topic.publish=mygateway-in
mcc.gateway.mqtt.topic.subscribe=mygateway-out
