Connection over wss fails

[ARao0123]

Hi, this is my first time using MQTT and I'm trying to use websockets. I tried to connect to mqtt broker and subscribe to a topic via mqttbox and I can do it successfully. But when I try the same thing via code, I get timeout error. Details shown below:

Expected behavior: Successful connection to the mqtt broker, no errors Actual behavior: "mqtt client encounter error connecting: network Error : dial tcp x.x.x.x:XXXX: i/o timeout"

Code snippet:

broker := fmt.Sprintf("wss://%s:%d/mqtt", "address", 1234)

//Create the broker
opts = mqtt.NewClientOptions()
opts.AddBroker(broker)
opts.SetClientID(fmt.Sprintf("clientID.%s", time.Now()))
opts.SetUsername(Username)
opts.SetPassword(Password)

mqttClient = mqtt.NewClient(opts)

if token := mqttClient.Connect(); token.Wait() && token.Error() != nil {
    fmt.Println(err)      // This is the error point I hit
}

I've tried the broker with wss and ws, no luck! Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

As per the readme the issues section is intended for use reporting bugs rather than for requesting general assistance (other resources are suggested for that).

However a dial timeout is a network issue; this would generally indicate that there is nothing at the address (or perhaps a firewall is blocking access). I'd suggest trying with the mosquitto test server; if that works OK then it points towards a network/broker issue. If you are still having issues I'd suggest asking on Stackoverflow but you will need to provide full details (i.e. don't hide the addesss/port, detail exactly how you are connecting with mqttbox and provide info on the broker you are using).

Thanks for the suggestion, closing this issue.
