mosquitto

Opening 2 brokers on the same computer

Asked by maoz3000

I am trying to check how simple is bridging 2 brokers. For now I have only one server - my PC, equipped with Windows 7 :)
Is it possible to execute two processes of mosquitto? Currently, the second broker throws error message that the address is already in use...

You need to run the second broker on another port. You can either run it as:

mosquitto -p 1884

where 1884 is the port number, or create a new config file and set the port number there. You'd then run it as:

mosquitto -c mosquitto.conf
