    No, you need to recompile it again in case you make that change. Have you ever tried dietpi for RPI?

      @gohan OK. I did that, the same socket error remains in Mosquitto just under new id.
      Is my syntax correct or am I somehow having problems with mosquitto user-pw...?

      Haven't tried DietPi. Would Mys+Mosquitto+Openhab2 have trouble running on it? Or why should I change to it?

        have you tried connecting with another mqtt client like mqttfx to see if everything is working?

          @masmat What is the mqtt broker / version you are using?

            @gieljnssns One way is to replace the changed files, in this case EthernetServer.cpp for the first patch and EthernetClient.cpp for the second patch.

            You can download from:
            https://raw.githubusercontent.com/marceloaqno/MySensors/linux-fix-stability/drivers/Linux/EthernetServer.cpp
            https://raw.githubusercontent.com/marceloaqno/MySensors/linux-fix-stability/drivers/Linux/EthernetClient.cpp

            Here is a step-by-step:

            git clone https://github.com/mysensors/MySensors.git
            cd MySensors
            curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/marceloaqno/MySensors/linux-fix-stability/drivers/Linux/EthernetServer.cpp -o drivers/Linux/EthernetServer.cpp
            curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/marceloaqno/MySensors/linux-fix-stability/drivers/Linux/EthernetClient.cpp -o drivers/Linux/EthernetClient.cpp
            

            from here just run ./configure with your options and then make

              @marceloaqno Mosquitto v1.4.14.
              The broker is working, at least sending & receiving command line (_sub & _pub) messages.

                @gohan

                Can you provide some installation instructions for dietpi?
                I will try this...

                  just download the image and do the same as a Raspian image. I haven't tried mqtt gateway yet, so I don't know if it may be a gateway bug or else.

                    @marceloaqno :
                    Hi, unfortunately the latest patch did not work for me.
                    Still the gw stops receiving, but without high cpu usage :-(
                    Fortunately I can restart the gw now using a button and this udp-scripts :-)

                    Of cource I could give dietpi a try, but I would think, that a general solution would be better (for other users as well)

                    cheers,
                    Otto

                      @gohan I had another sd card and tried a ready image of DietPi with Mosquitto pre-installed.
                      I tried it without user/password and mosquitto accepting anonymous but:

                      /var/log/mosquitto/mosquitto.log:
                      1521141160: Socket error on client <unknown>, disconnecting.

                      ..keeps repeating...

                      ...and sudo ./bin/mysgw -d:

                        1st patch is still working good for me. have had no issues since applying it.

                        question. is it normal/correct for the gateway to ping or spam? every 10 seconds i see the gateway announce it's version.
                        its not doing the full restart or anything.. just giving the 2.2.0 every 10 seconds.

                          @masmat have you tried with ethernet gateway? If I have time I'll try the mqtt this weekend

                          @mvader I never noticed that.... is it the mqtt GW?

                              I think OH should support it, but I was just asking to make a test.

                                The controller doesn't exist on the DietPi card yet but I'm not sure if that's causing the problem.

                                  @masmat said in 💬 Building a Raspberry Pi Gateway:

                                  --my-controller-ip-address=127.0.0.1

                                  remove that parameter as it is not needed for ethernet

                                    The controller doesn't exist on the DietPi card yet but I'm not sure if that's causing the problem.

                                      @masmat have you tried with ethernet gateway? If I have time I'll try the mqtt this weekend

                                      @mvader I never noticed that.... is it the mqtt GW?

                                      I'm not using mqtt.
                                      for debug purposes i use MYSController
                                      every 10 seconds on the dot. it shows me the version of the gateway.

                                          Yesterday I cloned the latest version on a recent raspbian (9.3) and I applied the first patch of @marceloaqno .
                                          We will see. So long there were no problems. I will send an update in a few days...
                                          As a last help I could switch to mqtt and do a restart after a defined amount of time (if no events are received)....

                                          Cheers,
                                          Otto
