MQTTS proxy not working

Question

MQTTS proxy not working

SaraVeterini opened this issue 4 years ago · comments

When selecting mqtts proxy mode, after inserting certificates and applying changes the proxy blocks, and prints only the mitm broker certificates in the console.
The certificates are in .pem format. How can I configure correctly the certificates in the mitm and distant broker configuration?

Thank you.

Hi, I have an update. I tried selecting mqtts mode both in mitm broker and in distant broker settings, then I added the same key-pem set (mitm.key and mitm.pem files) in both settings, without the root CA in MITM and the CA in distant broker, and it worked. So the problems seems to be the CA management. The CA I used before is installed in my machine.

I also tried putting mqtt in mitm broker (so without certificates), and mqtts in distant broker, with the key-pem pair and the ca.pem file. In this way it works too, meaning that the CA is a problem only when combined with MITM broker settings in MQTTS mode.

I hope this helps in reproducing the issue. I think this tool can be very powerful.

Thank you.
