    Can you connect to the MQTT server using MQTT-SPY?

        Hi all!
        I am not native english speaker, sorry for my text.
        I have:

        • arduino mega
        • ethernet shield
        • mosquitto on linux (192.168.1.75:1883)
        • mysensors 2.0
        • arduino ide 1.6.12
        • MQTT gateway

        Code of MQTT Gateway:

        /**
         * The MySensors Arduino library handles the wireless radio link and protocol
         * between your home built sensors/actuators and HA controller of choice.
         * The sensors forms a self healing radio network with optional repeaters. Each
         * repeater and gateway builds a routing tables in EEPROM which keeps track of the
         * network topology allowing messages to be routed to nodes.
         *

         * REVISION HISTORY
         * Version 1.0 - Henrik Ekblad
         * 
         * DESCRIPTION
         * The W5100 MQTT gateway sends radio network (or locally attached sensors) data to your MQTT broker.
         * The node also listens to MY_MQTT_TOPIC_PREFIX and sends out those messages to the radio network
         *
         * LED purposes:
         * - To use the feature, uncomment WITH_LEDS_BLINKING in MyConfig.h
         * - RX (green) - blink fast on radio message recieved. In inclusion mode will blink fast only on presentation recieved
         * - TX (yellow) - blink fast on radio message transmitted. In inclusion mode will blink slowly
         * - ERR (red) - fast blink on error during transmission error or recieve crc error  
         * 
         * See http://www.mysensors.org/build/esp8266_gateway for wiring instructions.
         * nRF24L01+  ESP8266
         * VCC        VCC
         * CE         GPIO4          
         * CSN/CS     GPIO15
         * SCK        GPIO14
         * MISO       GPIO12
         * MOSI       GPIO13
         *            
         * Not all ESP8266 modules have all pins available on their external interface.
         * This code has been tested on an ESP-12 module.
         * The ESP8266 requires a certain pin configuration to download code, and another one to run code:
         * - Connect REST (reset) via 10K pullup resistor to VCC, and via switch to GND ('reset switch')
         * - Connect GPIO15 via 10K pulldown resistor to GND
         * - Connect CH_PD via 10K resistor to VCC
         * - Connect GPIO2 via 10K resistor to VCC
         * - Connect GPIO0 via 10K resistor to VCC, and via switch to GND ('bootload switch')
         * 
          * Inclusion mode button:
         * - Connect GPIO5 via switch to GND ('inclusion switch')
         * 
         * Hardware SHA204 signing is currently not supported!
         *
         * Make sure to fill in your ssid and WiFi password below for ssid & pass.

        I try to use mosquitto_sub and pub + mqtt-spy, and mqtt broker is work.
        I replase mega -> uno, one ethernet shield to another, nothing change.
        ping between client and brocker is ok.

        I don't know what else to do, can anybody help me?

            @pinkkoff iirr the mqtt implementation in mysensors is 3.1.1
            Try upgrading your mosquitto version

              Problem is in version of mosquitto in ubuntu repository. If someone want to use mqtt, better way is follow step-by-step guide

                FYI, I've had better luck using the mosquitto ppa. Tested on RPI2 and RPI3 running Ubuntu.

                  I'm also trying mqtt. somehow I can't see the messages:

                  MySensors $ ./configure --my-gateway=mqtt --my-controller-ip-address=192,168,1,32 --my-port=1883 --my-mqtt-client-id=22 --my-mqtt-publish-topic-prefix=mysensors-from --my-mqtt-subscribe-topic-prefix=mysensors-to --my-rf24-pa-level=RF24_PA_LOW 
                  MySensors $ sudo make install
                  ...
                  MySensors $ sudo mysGateway -d
                  ...
                  mysGateway: Attempting MQTT connection...
                  mysGateway: connected to 192.168.1.32
                  mysGateway: TSF:MSG:READ,8-8-0,s=255,c=3,t=15,pt=6,l=2,sg=0:0100
                  mysGateway: !TSF:MSG:SEND,0-0-8-8,s=255,c=3,t=15,pt=6,l=2,sg=0,ft=0,st=NACK:0100
                  mysGateway: TSF:MSG:READ,8-8-0,s=255,c=0,t=17,pt=0,l=10,sg=0:2.0.1-beta
                  mysGateway: TSF:MSG:READ,8-8-0,s=255,c=3,t=6,pt=1,l=1,sg=0:0
                  mysGateway: Attempting MQTT connection...
                  mysGateway: connected to 192.168.1.32
                  ...
                  

                  So GW attempts to send some stuff to mqtt server elsewhere, like that version string. But this on the server prints nothing:

                  $ mosquitto_sub -t mysensors-from/*

                  I also tried with # instead of *

                  I've verified mqtt works, if I pub that from mqtt client, it works.

                    so this works:

                    MySensors $ mosquitto_pub -h 192.168.1.32 -t mysensors-from/0/1 -m "MySensors MQTT hello world from raspi to odroid"

                    mqtt-host $ mosquitto_sub -t mysensors-from/#
                    MySensors MQTT hello world from raspi to odroid

                      My mosquitto is mosquitto 3.1 - 0.15-2ubuntu1 (from ppa) and mysensors is up to date devel branch from github.

                        after upgrading to above mentioned 3.1.1 version from wheezy, the mysensors start to print out it sends stuff. can't see it on subs yet though.
