Mosquitto broker sending message to Azure IoT Hub

[Mario Barbato]

Hi,

I'm new to MQTT as well as for the Microsoft azure cloud.

I'm trying to use mosquitto broker from my pc to send a simple message to my azure IoTHub. 

I set mosquitto_pub parameteres as explained here : https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/iot-hub-devguide/

However mosquitto sends isn't able to send the connect packet, and I don't know why. I think that the problem is related to the SAS token in password field. Below is my command:

mosquitto_pub -h {IotHub Hostname} -p 8883 -t devices/{deviceId}/messages/events -m "Test" -V mqttv311 -i {deviceId} -d -u {Hub Name}.azure-devices.net/{deviceId} -P "HostName={Hub name}.azure-devices.net;DeviceId={deviceId};SharedAccessSignature=SharedAccessSignature sr={Hub name}.azure-devices.net%2fdevices%2f{deviceId}&sig=BYvo8GE%2fcOdnD8G3wsP7VElU4SwsVTSaACnif%2ffBj1k%3d&se=1456911258"

I hope you can help solve this issue.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Mario,

Sorry for not replying to your earlier email to me, I've been a bit
ill and had ill children to deal with as well. I couldn't see the
answer to your problem at that point either.

You've set the port to 8883, but you still need to go into TLS mode -
you can do this with "--cafile <path to azure CA certificate>".

Cheers,

Roger

Hi Roger,
I wrote you another mail.
Azure IoT Hub doesn't require certificates so i don't have them. I set "require_certificate false" in mosquitto configuration file, however i'm having problem opening port 8883.
