I set up my first gbridge integration yesterday. I had no issues getting everything to work with my Node-Red. However, I managed to create an endless loop in my Node-Red logics and I disabled gbridge MQTT connection from NodeRed side late last night. This morning when I fixed the loop issue, I went and enabled the MQTT connection again. However, it no longer manages to connect to mqtt.gbridge.io server. I've now went and changed my MQTT password multiple times on the gbridge.io website, but no luck getting it up and running again.
Is there an issue with the server maybe? |
Also, not sure if it matters but I'm on a paid subscription |
From within domoticz, with the plug-in, it worked, yesterday. Will test later today |
I have the same problem. My system has been running for weeks without any problems. |
Ok, looks to be a server issue indeed then.... for time being, I've switched over to NORA. |
I think I'll switch to nora, too. my last contact with the nora developer worked within hours. |
what is nora? |
same problem here, stopped working. Guessing server needs a nudge |
@sander816 Nora is very similar to gbridge - https://github.com/andrei-tatar/node-red-contrib-nora |
Same here… When I try to debug the connection to the hosted MQTT server it errors out with: "Error: Connection refused" mosquitto_sub -u gbridge-u[USER] --pw [PASSWORD] -p 8883 --capath /etc/ssl/certs -t gBridge/# -d -v -h mqtt.gbridge.io |
yep. seems like the mqtt server has some issues. |
I am experiencing the same problem too. Locally MQTT works fine, but can't connect to gBridge.
Also, here is my mosquitto config file:
|
The server has been down for a couple days now. We might have to find alternatives. |
Simply switch to NORA. I also donated something to the developer @andrei-tatar with PayPal to support his efforts. |
it is just one day that the service is not working. |
It has been 2 days for me (Thursday, Friday, and now Saturday). Its not spreading fear, it's stating facts. Since I'm paying for the service, I would like it to work or at least have some kind of response from the person getting my money. I would prefer not to switch to a different service, but it doesn't hurt to consider my options. |
well you are right that the communication is definitely bad. and as a customer you should be informed of the status but i still think that it will be corrected |
It happens with all services, not only this. We are used to convenient online services and that situation just another side of the medal. So that is some kind of ok. But, at least we had to be informed, cause I thought that the problem is on my side and I spent some time on it to try to fix it. |
Its been a few days for me too as well since I was able to connect to the service. I was trying to troubleshoot "Connection issues" which lead me finally to this topic. |
It is working again. |
That's awesome. @peterkappelt - could you shed some light on the cause for this disruption? Is it something that we might expect to happen again in the future or was this just a series of unfortunate events which are not likely to happen again? Do not get me wrong. I applaud anyone who is developing Open Source software. I'm a firm believer in Open Source and in supporting the developers while doing so. It is just that I need to assess the potential risks as well. I do smart home setups for a living, so if I tell my customers "I will be using this piece of software, it will cost you XX/month in buying the developer coffee every month." Then it will become exponentially more difficult to sell them on it if I need to add a clause, "oh, by the way it might not work for a few days every now and then." |

Thanks @Chrischi- Ii have been looking at that option as well. I only just discovered gBridge and am in the testing phase right now, trying to determine its reliability. Generally I'm not really looking to use gBridge as SaaS as such. I'm not interested in the overhead that comes with managing gBridge subscriptions for my customers, even if I added my own fee to the service. I prefer "set it and forget it" type of approach where I set up a working system for the customer and if there are any subscription based components, make sure the customer is aware of them and on how to keep the subscriptions going. Then get paid once for services provided. That said, if the business solution comes with up time guarantees, then that's definitely something to consider. So far I have not managed to get any response to my e-mail. |
i just found out about kappelt, but i have no idea what i am doing wrong with my first test device:
i try to subscribe to my topic:
mosquitto_sub --username gbridge-ux --pw xxx --capath /etc/ssl/certs/ --host mqtt.gbridge.io --port 8883 --topic gBridge/u146/x/onoff
but i keep getting
Connection Refused: not authorised.
what am i doing wrong here?
