Hello,

I run Mosquitto in Ubuntu Linux. Service works fine with anonymous users. Trying to configure system by editing editing /etc/mosquitto/conf.d/mosquitto.conf file.

mosquitto.conf content:

log_type all

allow_anonymous false
password_file /etc/mosquitto/mosquitto_users.txt
pid_file /var/run/mosquitto.pid

persistence true
persistence_location /var/lib/mosquitto/

log_dest file /var/log/mosquitto/mosquitto.log

include_dir /etc/mosquitto/conf.d

Restart mosquitto by break and run mosquitto -v command again.

Looks like configuration file makes no influence in system. Still allows anonymous and log file has no new records.

How to make configuration file work?

`mosquitto -v` does not load a configuration file.

If you have installed mosquitto from the Ubuntu repository or the Mosquitto PPA, then you should have a file /etc/mosquitto/mosquitto.conf which configures the directory /etc/mosquitto/conf.d/ as a place to put configuration files.

If you have, then starting Mosquitto using systemd (systemctl start mosquitto) should load your configuration file.

Please note that you must remove the line `include_dir /etc/mosquitto/conf.d` from the file in the conf.d directory, it is not permitted there.

I hope that helps.

Roger
