Configure Mosquitto broker with TLS [message #1731470]

I am trying to configure Mosquitto broker with TLS support using the steps mentioned in the following mosquitto.conf file:

# mosquitto.conf
pid_file /var/run/mosquitto.pid
persistence true
persistence_location /var/lib/mosquitto/
log_dest file /var/log/mosquitto/mosquitto.log
cafile /etc/mosquitto/ca_certificates/ca.crt
certfile /etc/mosquitto/certs/myhost.crt
keyfile /etc/mosquitto/certs/myhost.key

I want to use MQTT with TLS .

But I am getting error for all the parameters except "listener" that are configured in mosquitto.conf file.

For e.g.
$ mosquitto -c mosquitto.conf
Error: Unknown configuration variable "cafile"
Error: Unable to open configuration file.

Which version of mosquitto supports TLS? Or is there anything else that I am missing?

This configuration is working correctly on my server:

listener 8883
certfile /etc/mosquitto/ca_certificates/cert.pem
keyfile  /etc/mosquitto/ca_certificates/privkey.pem
cafile   /etc/mosquitto/ca_certificates/fullchain.pem

Have you tried using the configuration in my example? If it didn't work, what errors did you see?

please DO NOT USE TABLE symbols in the configuration file. Good looking kills the configuration. just use one space that's enough, or make a PR to the github to fix this issue.
