In the code that doesn't work you seem to be not using username and password i.e. setting them to '' and using them in the connect call -
await client.connect(usern, passw);
In the code that does work you are setting these to real values. if you pass a username and password to the connect method that are not null it will set them as authentication parameters in the connect message so the broker may be failing the connection on bad authentication. Either set these to the correct values or if you are not using them then just call connect -
await client.connect();
Its odd to see ws working and wss not working in either case the client just checks the connection URL and passes them straight to the Dart runtime. If the suggestion above doesn't work you will have to look at your broker logs to see why it is refusing the connection.
Ah thanks for catching that! I've tried with both the appropriate username/password I've set a testing credentials: username: octopus password: octopus
Here is my log file when using that username/password for WSS. These credentials are verified to work with other MQTT clients.

You have your setProtocol line commented out by the looks of it, try uncommenting this i.e. set the protocol to v311.
Tried that but still no luck.
After some debugging with GPT, I've got the feeling it might have something to do with the SSL/TLS authentication. I don't have any local certificate on my client, but some reading suggests I might need one?
Would appreciate any further insight!
Digging around reveals that this is executed - where that 'websocket has erred' comes from:
errorEvents = client.onError.listen((e) {
MqttLogger.log(
'MqttBrowserWsConnection::connect - websocket has erred');
openEvents?.cancel();
closeEvents?.cancel();
errorEvents?.cancel();
return completer.complete(MqttClientConnectionStatus());
});
Inside the mqtt_client_mqtt_browser_ws_connection.dart file.
How can I make more sense of this?
I have completely delete my previous mosquitto MQTT broker and now I'm using EMQX instead. The issue persists. I'm unable to connect using WSS.
I've tried every combination of enabling/disabling client.setProtocol31() and 311() I've tried variations on
client.websocketProtocols = MqttClientConstants.protocolsSingleDefault; client.websocketProtocols = ['mqtt'];
Alas, nothing seems to be working.
When using the same adderss/port on MQTTX it works 100%. So weird.
Ok, the only recourse you have is to look at your broker logs and find out why the broker is failing the connection everything else is guess work.
AFAIK you do not need a cert for wss working only for secure sockets on the server side.
The code is the same for ws or wss see the Dart docs for websockets, only the URL is different and as you say ws works.
If it is TLS error of some kind then its in the Dart runtime not the client. Other clients dont usevthe Dart runtime so its immaterial what they do.
There are many users using wss in the browser with no problems please look at your broker logs.
Wow, what a JOURNEY.
After switching from Mosquitto to EMQX, several snapshot and reinstalling my entire server I've got it working.
Use Certbot
Easy way to install: sudo apt install certbot python3-certbot-nginx
Next, follow along this tutorial to generate the certificates for yourself.
If you get stuck or something breaks, its probably nginx or something else using the ports. Turn that off first before trying to generate a certificate using sudo systemctl stop nginx
or whatever you're using.
Finally, install mosquitto and secure it using these steps: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-use-certbot-standalone-mode-to-retrieve-let-s-encrypt-ssl-certificates-on-ubuntu-1804
Important Sidenote: I'm using cloudflare for security and proteciton.
In order for everything to work properly, I had to make a subdomain that is used exclusively for mqtt. Cloudflare should not be used to proxy this. Test that your domain mqtt.mywebsite.com resolves to the IP address of your server cluster.
Thanks for the great library again @shamblett .
Great, thanks for posting the solution, I'll bear this in mind if any other users have wss issues.
Though this is closed, I'd like to add to why the Let's Encrypt certificates work for future folks (and why people might be having trouble connecting via WSS).
I was unable to get secure websockets working against my mosquitto instance that was secured with self-signed certificates. Well, after some digging I found out this is because the self-signed certificates are not trusted by browsers (unless you manually add your cert, but that's tough in prod) and this appears to be why I'm seeing the MqttBrowserWsConnection::connect - websocket has erred
issue. Switching to a Let's Encrypt cert solved this issue.
As of writing this comment there currently is no way to trust self-signed certificates or bypass the verification step of the certificate in flutter web. Trusting a self-signed certificate (or bypassing the verification step) is only something that can be done using dart:io
which is not available to flutter web.
So, what makes the Let's Encrypt certs work? The chain of trust. Let's Encrypt is trusted by major browsers. When your browser tries to connect to your broker, it sees the Let's Encrypt cert and allows the connection.
Hope that helps! Get a cert signed by a trusted CA!
Hello! First off, thank you for making such an epic library!
I'm having some issues when trying to use the browserclient. The default example works for me. However, my server requires me to use WSS instead of just WS.
I'm able to access my WSS server using another MQTT client, but for some reason it doesn't work when I'm using dart.
Details to test from other MQTT client:
IP: 93.90.207.70 [Anonymous Access is Enabled] [Uses TLS Encryption from Cloudflare]
[x] -Try using that in any MQTT client and it'll work. [x] -It does not work when I run it in dart. [x] - have tried tons of different ports [x] - Double checked my host/provdier's firewall isn't blocking anything [x] - it works for plain WS on my server but not WSS (use port 8083 and change to 'ws://...' instead of 'wss://...',
The error I get is MqttBrowserWsConnection::connect - websocket has erred. Reading a few other posts, I thought it might be my mosquitto config:
But I'm not sure if that is the case, because I AM able to access it user other MQTT clients as shown here (Using MQTT Explorer):
Any help or suggestions would be highly appreciated!
