I used the Helper script, and also run the after installation like described, and i did in the past with my docker setup as well, which is runing well.

Currently i'm receiving the following output by check the status of the service:

× mosquitto.service - Mosquitto MQTT Broker

Here is my mosquitto.conf file:

#
# A full description of the configuration file is at
# /usr/share/doc/mosquitto/examples/mosquitto.conf.gz

pid_file /run/mosquitto/mosquitto.pid

persistence true
persistence_location /var/lib/mosquitto/

log_dest file /var/log/mosquitto/mosquitto.log

include_dir /etc/mosquitto/conf.d

password_file /etc/mosquitto/mosquitto.passwd
allow_anonymous false

listener 1883

Is there anybody who can help, what blocks the service from starting?

@TungriDev commented on GitHub (Jan 22, 2025):

solved by myself, Found that in conf.d there is a default.conf which i wasn't aware off. Because of that i had duplicate entries and that blocked the loading of the service.
