MQTT Broker ECONNREFUSED - Docker

[ArthurKing834]

Hi

I am following the Docker instructions and got to the 'Docker Run' part but I am getting this error:

2025-01-07T14:33:25.631Z ring-mqtt Attempting to reconnect to MQTT broker...
2025-01-07T14:33:25.633Z ring-mqtt Unable to connect to MQTT broker connect ECONNREFUSED 192.168.1.200:1883

This is my config file:

{
"mqtt_url": "mqtt://192.168.1.200:1883",
"mqtt_options": "",
"livestream_user": "",
"livestream_pass": "",
"disarm_code": "",
"enable_cameras": true,
"enable_modes": false,
"enable_panic": false,
"hass_topic": "homeassistant/status",
"ring_topic": "ring",
"location_ids": []
}

I have just followed the instructions up to this point but perhaps I have missed something?

Thanks

Not to sound too snarky, but "MQTT broker connect ECONNREFUSED" is a pretty clear error message, i.e. connection to the MQTT broker was refused. Based on your configuration, you would expect that an MQTT broker is listening and port 1883 on the host with IP 192.168.1.200 and accepts anonymous connections. Do you have a broker configured this way on that host? What do it's logs say?
