here is a log entry i found. i cleaned it up a bit to allow it to post better. Code: INFO - ****** JMRI log ******* [main] INFO - This log is appended to file: C:\Users\travi\JMRI\log\messages.log [main] INFO - This log is stored in file: C:\Users\travi\JMRI\log\session.log [main] INFO - PanelPro version 4.16+R6f9aced starts under Java 1.8.0_221 on Windows 10 x86 v10.0 at Fri Aug 02 14:47:49 EDT 2019 [main] INFO - Starting with profile My_JMRI_Railroad.3f5ef60b [main] INFO - Using ba2b9892-f4a2-4c07-8256-7db24791c913 as the JMRI storage identity for profile id 3f5ef60b [AWT-EventQueue-0] ERROR - Unable to create jmri.jmrix.mqtt.configurexml.MqttConnectionConfigXml for [Element: <connection/>], load returned false [main] ERROR - Exception initializing jmri.jmrix.ConnectionConfigManager: Unable to create several of your connections.

[main] INFO - Normal termination complete [main] the MQTT broker i am using is a local network server, running Mosquitto (on a CentOS server). not sure what the issue is, as i can connect to the broker with MQTT Explorer, with the same settings. ~Travis
yeah, i tried both with and without auth. currently my MQTT broker is set to anonymous connections (probably fine as it is behind a firewall anyway). i thought it may work better with auth, but couldn't figure out how to add the auth info to JMRI. the thing is, i just noticed when viewing the Syslog on my server, when i log in with MQTT Explorer, it logs the connection. but when i try with JMRI, nothing pops up on the log, suggesting no attempt to even connect before it throws an error. ~Travis
You might need to check with the JMRI team via https://groups.io/g/jmriusers, found this topic which is of interest: https://groups.io/g/jmriusers/topic/24537680
