I want to use hiveMQ public broker in my project that's the same broker as what available in PubSubClient esp8266 examples but when I change WiFi SSID and password in example and upload it I got this output:
Connecting to <SSID NAME>
........
WiFi connected
IP address:
192.168.1.14
Attempting MQTT connection...failed, rc=-2 try again in 5 seconds
Attempting MQTT connection...failed, rc=-2 try again in 5 seconds
Attempting MQTT connection...failed, rc=-4 try again in 5 seconds
Attempting MQTT connection...failed, rc=-4 try again in 5 seconds
Attempting MQTT connection...failed, rc=-4 try again in 5 seconds
Attempting MQTT connection...
I tried this with pubsub client v2.8/v2.6/v2.4 and esp32 latest version and esp8266 latest version and 2.3
in response to the comment as I said my code is esp8266_basic example in the PubSub client examples and here is my code:
#include <ESP8266WiFi.h>
#include <PubSubClient.h>
// Update these with values suitable for your network.
const char* ssid = "<SSID>";
const char* password = "<PASS>";
const char* mqtt_server = "broker.mqtt-dashboard.com"; //tested with broker.mqttdashboard.com
WiFiClient espClient;
PubSubClient client(espClient);
long lastMsg = 0;
char msg[50];
int value = 0;
void setup() {
pinMode(BUILTIN_LED, OUTPUT); // Initialize the BUILTIN_LED pin as an output
Serial.begin(115200);
setup_wifi();
client.setServer(mqtt_server, 1883); //8000 and 1883 tested
client.setCallback(callback);
}
void setup_wifi() {
delay(10);
// We start by connecting to a WiFi network
Serial.println();
Serial.print("Connecting to ");
Serial.println(ssid);
WiFi.begin(ssid, password);
while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED) {
delay(500);
Serial.print(".");
}
Serial.println("");
Serial.println("WiFi connected");
Serial.println("IP address: ");
Serial.println(WiFi.localIP());
}
void callback(char* topic, byte* payload, unsigned int length) {
Serial.print("Message arrived [");
Serial.print(topic);
Serial.print("] ");
for (int i = 0; i < length; i++) {
Serial.print((char)payload[i]);
}
Serial.println();
// Switch on the LED if an 1 was received as first character
if ((char)payload[0] == '1') {
digitalWrite(BUILTIN_LED, LOW); // Turn the LED on (Note that LOW is the voltage level
// but actually the LED is on; this is because
// it is acive low on the ESP-01)
} else {
digitalWrite(BUILTIN_LED, HIGH); // Turn the LED off by making the voltage HIGH
}
}
void reconnect() {
// Loop until we're reconnected
while (!client.connected()) {
Serial.print("Attempting MQTT connection...");
// Attempt to connect
if (client.connect("ESP8266Client")) {
Serial.println("connected");
// Once connected, publish an announcement...
client.publish("outTopic", "hello world");
// ... and resubscribe
client.subscribe("inTopic");
} else {
Serial.print("failed, rc=");
Serial.print(client.state());
Serial.println(" try again in 5 seconds");
// Wait 5 seconds before retrying
delay(5000);
}
}
}
void loop() {
if (!client.connected()) {
reconnect();
}
client.loop();
long now = millis();
if (now - lastMsg > 2000) {
lastMsg = now;
++value;
snprintf (msg, 75, "hello world #%ld", value);
Serial.print("Publish message: ");
Serial.println(msg);
client.publish("outTopic", msg);
}
}
on esp32 I remove pinMode(BUILTIN_LED, OUTPUT); // Initialize the BUILTIN_LED pin as an output
and
if ((char)payload[0] == '1') {
digitalWrite(BUILTIN_LED, LOW); // Turn the LED on (Note that LOW is the voltage level
// but actually the LED is on; this is because
// it is acive low on the ESP-01)
} else {
digitalWrite(BUILTIN_LED, HIGH); // Turn the LED off by making the voltage HIGH
}

on the ESP32. BTW why do you use the deprecatedBUILTIN_LED
instead ofLED_BUILTIN
?client.connect("ESP8266Client")
to(mqttClient.connect(clientID,mqttUserName,mqttPass))
