Hi Roger, Mosquitto documentation says: password_file *file path*Reloaded on reload signal. The currently loaded username and password data will be freed and reloaded. *Clients that are already connected will not be affected.*
But as soon as i send sighup signal to mosquitto process to reload configuration files, existing connections hangs up. Below are the steps i followed (no password file in use): 1) Start a broker on default port 1883. 2) Subscribe on the broker with any topic (mosquitto_sub -h localhost -p 1883 -t abc -i user1) 3) Send reload (SIGHUP) signal to mosquitto process (kill -1 mosquittoProcessId) Result: As soon as i send the signal, the client subscribed in step 2 hangs up. Same is the case when i configure password file to authenticate clients.I have tested on versions 1.1.3 and 1.1.1 . Please let me know how to avoid this? I want to add and remove passwords in password file dynamically and don't want existing connections to get affected due to reload. With Regards, Saurabh Patil.
