I'd like to use MQTT in tomcat8 in order to publish messages via MQTT. I use the Paho library version 3.1.1. When I try to instantiate the client using
String clientId = Mqtt.generateClientId();
MqttClient client = new MqttClient("tcp://localhost:1883", clientId);
I get an MqttException(0).
Below you'll find the details of the error message and the stacktrace:
reason 0
msg MqttException
loc MqttException
cause null
excep MqttException (0)
MqttException (0)

The same code works fine in a command line program, so I guess I have to do some kind of configuration of MQTT and/or tomcat. I also don't know if I need additional libraries. I just copied the paho library in the lib-folder of WEB-INF.
Just right now I am only guessing what could be the problem.
Can somebody explain me how I have to configure tomcat or where I have to move the library?
Thanks a lot,
Rudi
The exception is being thrown when the MQTT Client tries to open the persistence file, I will assume it is probably a permisions error for the default location and the user running Tomcat.
You probably need to set the path by passing in a MQTTDefaultFilePersistence object to the MQTTClient() constructor after the client ID or pass in a MemoryPersistence to remove the need to store to disk at all (this will potentially loose messages if Tomcat crashes).
