memory access error [message #1827775]

Hi
I try to run a small c program, that receives messages via lora and transfers these messages to an mqtt broker residing on another host.
Running the program fails because of a memory access error when the connection to the mqtt broker is established. For the code of the mqtt part I followed the example on the Paho site (https://www.eclipse.org/paho/files/mqttdoc/MQTTClient/html/pubsync.html
I am able to compile my own source code (see uploaded file). I am not experienced in c programming (normally java) so I appreciate any help on this topic. Thank you!
Christian

You haven't checked the return value from MQTTClient_create(). It will have failed because "http" is not a protocol supported by the API.

Hi Ian
thank you for helping. I corrected the protocol to tcp and now the program runs until it tries to publish the message to broker. Here I get error -5 that says:

/**
 * Return code: An invalid UTF-8 string has been detected.
 */
#define MQTTCLIENT_BAD_UTF8_STRING -5

The terminal log looks like so:

Starting rf95_server
Content of rf95_server.ini
project=ch_001659_2
dest_addr=tcp://192.168.1.65:1883
client_id=gs16

RF95 CS=GPIO25, IRQ=GPIO4, RST=GPIO17, LED=GPIO255 OK NodeID=1 @ 868.00MHz
Create MQTT client
Connect to MQTT broker on tcp://192.168.1.65:1883
Listening packet...
Packet[07] #255 => #255 -25dB:
 01 67 00 00 02 68 00
Publish failed: -5

rf95_server ending

How can I update the code, so that this error does no longer show up? Is it eventually the object buf that contains wrong value? If so how do I convert the buff to utf8? The buf comes from an arduino device. Maybe I have to solve this there, but how?
I uploaded the changed source file.
Thank you!
Christian
