I have the same issue as daxkamala. I'm curious to know what source you got ESP8266WiFi.h from. The one I found posted here(http://goo.gl/rqdfHY) on github doesn't contain the functions you show it has in your example.
Thanks.
@daxkamala @drewlsvern The library is bundled with the ESP8266 port of the Arduino IDE.
@igrr I don't see the library here: https://github.com/esp8266/Arduino/tree/esp8266/libraries
Nope. I have just a few hours ago downloaded this lot and in that directory there is EEPROM, ESP8266mDNS, ESP8266WebServer, ESP8266WiFi, SPI, Ticker and Wire. I'm not seeing any signs of pubsubclient - and the original library just doesn't compile. ???
Cannot find that PubSub library - if one tries the orgiinal PubSub this happens in compilation - it also happens when trying a web page example - same thing..
This is from an attempt to try a web page example but same error..
c:/users/peter/documents/arduino/hardware/arduino-esp8266-master/tools/xtensa-lx106-elf/bin/../lib/gcc/xtensa-lx106-elf/4.8.2/../../../../xtensa-lx106-elf/bin/ld.exe: C:\Users\Peter\AppData\Local\Temp\build71807972327932918.tmp/WiFiWebServer.cpp.elf: hidden symbol `__dso_handle' isn't defined
It was all starting to look good - added in the void * _dso_handle - that works a treat for the web page example - but PUBSUB... I added that in and it compiles just fine.
In the example the connection is to a non-password-protected MQTT broker. I don't see that happening too often and my own Pi-based MQTT server (Mosquitto) has a user name (admin) and password.
I tried the example with a modification to add username and password and it failed - so on a hunch - I tried a rubbish password...
Here's the code - same as original but with username and dummy pass
if (client.connect((char *) clientName.c_str()),"admin","werwer") {
"werwer" is a completely fictitious password and yet - the connect returned true and of course the publish failed. What SHOULD have happened is that the connection itself should have failed.
Any ideas? (Connectedd is deliberately spelling incorrectly - I wanted to ensure I'd actually blown the new code into the chip) - the important point is it thinks it has connected with an utterly wrong password.
Connecting to loft-east
....
WiFi connected
IP address:
192.168.0.9
Connecting to 192.168.0.15 as esp8266-18:fe:34:9f:4e:ef-ed
Connectedd to MQTT broker
Topic is: blah
Publish failed
Thanks for sharing this example - helped me a lot.
But if somebody experience the same problems I've did - maybe (s)he will find this information useful:
This sketch above does not contain a subscribe function - not a big deal, you just have to add a few lines to get it running
void callback(char* topic, byte* payload, unsigned int length) {
Serial.println("Received some data")
}
But then you think - ok, lets remove the constant noise on the mqtt bus and you remove the "client.publish" section.
Now things get interesting, because your mqtt broker (mosquito in my case) will throw you out, because you're beeing idle and your not commiting messages...
Why is that?
As mentioned on the site of nick o'leary (http://knolleary.net/arduino-client-for-mqtt/api/#loop) you have to do the "loop" constantly.
So if you add the following lines to your sketch, you should be able to subscribe to topics without the need to constantly publish stuff.
After the client.connect you should add this
if (client.subscribe("my_esp8266_subscription")){
Serial.println("Successfully subscribed");
}
My main loop looks pretty easy:
void loop()
{
client.loop();
}
For a proper handling of the callback-section of pubsubclient take a look at: http://m2mio.tumblr.com/post/30048662088/a-simple-example-arduino-mqtt-m2m-io - they provide a good code example.
Cheers

Has anyone done any work on this to make it resilient. I think I'm right in saying that if you lose the connection for any reason (issue with MQTT broker, WIFI issue) thats' it, end of story. Would save some R&D if someone has already done this. In a remote situation, an error message is no good :-)
Surely exercising the WDT is the way to go?
I am not yet seeing any WDT examples for the ESP under the Arduino IDE - anyone?
if you want to just use watchdog, I think a call to abort() if not (client.connected()){ should do the trick.
it worked for me when putting the folder PubSubClient from https://github.com/knolleary/pubsubclient into arduino-1.6.1\hardware\esp8266com\esp8266\libraries
I have use this example it work find but some thing make me confuse, when I use callback
void callback(char* topic, byte* payload, unsigned int length) {
// handle message arrived
String payloads = String((char*)payload);
Serial.println(payloads);
}
I publish testtest
to the topic but when the callback
run it return with some old buffer string or memory leaks?
like this testtestno_out{"micros":208547852,"counter":40}
The no_out{"micros":208547852,"counter":40}
.
I think it comfrom char* topic = "esp8266_arduino_out";
and payload {"micros":208547852,"counter":40}
full serial print
Sending payload: {"micros":208547852,"counter":40}
Publish ok
testtestno_out{"micros":208547852,"counter":40}
Sending payload: {"micros":213675151,"counter":41}
Publish ok
testtestno_out{"micros":213675151,"counter":41}
Sending payload: {"micros":218811991,"counter":42}
With latest build (installed via Boards Manager) I have PROGMEM incompatible issue with PubSubClient library. After some patches (deleting PROGMEM from PubSubClient.h and PubSubClient.cpp) working well.
Hi,
I've tried on both Arduino IDE's (1.6.1 & the latest 1.6.4), and I still see the same error:

Hi
I am looking for a working example of subscribe.
The above works great for Publish to mosquito
The suggestions above I can't get to work, I would apreciate a link to a working example
Thanks
Subscribe Problems
bjoernhoefer commented on 5 Apr sketch above does not contain a subscribe function.
Code was post but I can't get it to work.
Please could you explain again or better still copy of working sketch would be nice.
Many Thanks getting very fed up as I have been trying for more than a week and just about to give up.
Please help
Thanks again
@dogrocker, "String payloads = String((char_)payload);" will not work since payload is a byte_ and not null terminated, that's why it sends so much, until it runs into a null or max chars.
Try this:
// create character buffer with ending null terminator (string)
char message_buff[100];
for(i=0; i<length; i++) {message_buff[i] = payload[i]; }
message_buff[i] = '\0';
String msgString = String(message_buff);
@ parrotface, this would help you to I guess...

Thanks for info I will try as soon as I get time
I've got mine working fine now so just leave a reply if you get stuck.

Always has error above, any suggestions?
For the example above I had to use this PubSubClient library:
https://codeload.github.com/Imroy/pubsubclient/zip/master
But I had to change the call from the main program so it looked like this:
PubSubClient client(wifiClient, server, 1883);
And then... it worked.
Naish21~ Thanks a lot^^
Compilation failed with arduino ide, had to move the void callback above PubSubClient, but it should be fine as Naish21 mentioned above aswell..
Has anyone got this working with connection to port 8883 with username/pass/TLS etc ?
@AdamMiltonBarker - I've been trying and keep getting
"Attempting MQTT connection...failed, rc=-2 try again in 5 seconds"
Thanks Naish21 for your advice.
I downloaded my version of Mosquitto (v0.15) direct from the rasperian wheezy library & it was failing. When I wised up and downloaded Mosquitto from the Debian library (Latest version) all was goodness.
So if you have followed the instructions above and are still not connecting, try checking your Mosquitto version - you need the latest as the old ones done work
Instructions here
[(http://mosquitto.org/2013/01/mosquitto-debian-repository/)]
i have used esp 12e pubsub client. i will sent the message through mqtt using ardunio ide 1,6.5.once upload my code with iot.eclipse.org mqtt server url means data will send . so i change my own mqtt server means message not send it show the error
WiFi connected
IP address:
192.168.100.49
Attempting MQTT connection...failed, rc=-2 try again in 5 seconds
give me any suggestion pls?
Thank you. It works good.
Mosquitto Mqtt broker is on Ubuntu 12.04
I monitor the esp8266 through COM port /dev/ttyUSB0.
I have changed just this:
const char* ssid = "ququ2";
const char* password = "george34";
char* topic = "home/motions/Holl";
char* server = "192.168.1.19";
Have you had this working? I can't get it to compile and the ESP8266Wifi.h doesn't provide the headers that pubsubClient requires (i.e. to mimic an Ethernet Shield). Am I using the wrong version?
Any help appreciated.
