Problems with LoxBerry, MQTT and Shellies

[Gast]

Hello I starting to set up my first Loxberry and everything has gone well until MQTT. I setting up Shelly1 and trying to connect it with my Miniserver. I set up the subscription for Shelly1 shellies/#. But I always get in the Miniserver Virtual Inputs loxberry_mqttgateway_xxxxx seven of them. I have gone trough the config many times and read trough the websides again and again but can't find anything wrong I am doing. So I was thinking if someone has gone trough similar things in MQTT and share it with me I would be very grateful.

You need to provide more information, like screenshots of what you have done.
E.g. your Shelly MQTT Config.
Currently I only can read “it does not work”.

Hello AlexAn I have firmware version on the Shelly1 20210720-184522/v1.11.0-g6abd92e are you saying that I would downgrade to 1.10.4 ?
Yes the password is ok. I did set it and when the site refreshed there where just few dots but I think it alright

Hello AlexAn, I did set the Firmware on Shelly1 and restarted and the come problem is still here i.e. the shellies/# subscription does'nt show in Miniserver Virtual Input

[Christian Fenzl]

And you are absolutely sure that 192.168.1.77 is the IP of LoxBerry.
Because, this is usually the default ip of the Miniserver.

[AlexAn]

aah 77 ist the Miniserver

Oh yes it was the wrong ip now everything works. I wont thank you Christian for this help now I can move on. I will probably hit another wall since I am starting on this (as you can see) but just read and test and then again. Thank you again for the help.

Ports in the Plugin

Thank you for your help AlexAn everything works now. I was with wrong ip. I am happy now :-)

It says it is connected to the loxberry server but all I keep getting is the same inputs. I am using v2.2.2.2 on and Rpi. I have tried 2 different shelly devices, both up to date on the latest firmware.

One of the Kitchensd fields is the MQTT topic. Have you added a subscription for KitchenSD/# in the plugin?

You may define the topic on Shelly to shellies/Kitchensd, then it will be subscrbed by the default shellies/# subscription.

Worked! Thank You
