I want to use Mosquitto as bridge so when I publish my data from my app, to send them locally to my homeautomation in my raspberry but also I want to push my data to my HiveMQ cloud. I setup Mosquitto on my raspberry as Docker Image This is my mosquitto.conf file: ```auto # mosquitto.conf listener 1883 allow_anonymous true # Bridge configuration to cloud MQTT broker connection hivemq address somenumbers.s1.eu.hivemq.cloud:8884 topic my_topic1 both 0 topic my_topic2 both 0 remote_username username remote_password password bridge_protocol_version mqttv311 bridge_insecure true ``` This is the error I’m getting: ```auto 1725886666: Connecting bridge hivemq (somenumbers.s1.eu.hivemq.cloud:8884) 1725886666: Client local.name.hivemq closed its connection. 1725886629: Connecting bridge hivemq (somenumbers.s1.eu.hivemq.cloud:8884) 1725886629: Client local.name.hivemq closed its connection. 1725886611: Connecting bridge hivemq (somenumbers.s1.eu.hivemq.cloud:8884) 1725886611: Client local.name.hivemq closed its connection. 1725886491: Connecting bridge hivemq (somenumbers.s1.eu.hivemq.cloud:8884) 1725886491: Client local.name.hivemq closed its connection. ``` more detailed logs: ```auto 1725890893: Bridge local.name.hivemq doing local SUBSCRIBE on topic # 1725890893: Connecting bridge hivemq (somenumbers.s1.eu.hivemq.cloud:8884) 1725890893: Bridge name.hivemq sending CONNECT 1725890903: Client local.name.hivemq closed its connection. ``` ---

Hello @edonicardi Welcome to the HiveMQ Community! Please give it a try by changing the port number here ```auto address somenumbers.s1.eu.hivemq.cloud:8883 ``` Kind regards, Diego from HiveMQ Team ---

Hello @edonicardi We have some users who succeeded by using the Mosquito Bridge configuration of the post below. > [@Bridge Mosquitto to HiveMQ Cloud](https://community.hivemq.com/t/bridge-mosquitto-to-hivemq-cloud/534/10): > > Hi rstankie, I’ve figured it out due to this post [MQTT Broker Bridge to HiveMQ Cloud - #5 by naitsimp - Configuration - Home Assistant Community](https://community.home-assistant.io/t/mqtt-broker-bridge-to-hivemq-cloud/343023/5) I may be misunderstanding but it seems Hivemq has an expired certificate that fails validation. I noticed this connecting with MQTT-Explorer, I had to disable certificate validation for it to work. The solution: download the root certificate used to sign HiveMQs certificate here [https://letsencrypt.org/certs/isrgrootx1.pem](https://letsencrypt.org/certs/isrgrootx1.pem) In the bridge config set … Kind regards, Diego from HiveMQ Team
