I currently have an API in SpringBoot and I would like to add an MQTT client to subscribe to one or more topics. I tried several Paho,Hive clients, without success, I'm currently on the default MQTT of SpringBoot which uses Paho but I can't get it to work even with the basic configuration. I get a "Connection Lost" error as soon as I launch the application... Can you tell me a fix or something else that would work. Thanks!

Answer : This works with MqttOptions defined !
    @Bean
    public MqttConnectOptions getReceiverMqttConnectOptions() {
        MqttConnectOptions mqttConnectOptions = new MqttConnectOptions();
        mqttConnectOptions.setCleanSession(true);
        mqttConnectOptions.setConnectionTimeout(30);
        mqttConnectOptions.setKeepAliveInterval(60);
        mqttConnectOptions.setAutomaticReconnect(true);
//      mqttConnectOptions.setUserName("myemail");
        String password = "mypassword!";
//      String hostUrl = "tcp://maqiatto.com:1883";
        String hostUrl = "tcp://localhost:1883";
//      mqttConnectOptions.setPassword(password.toCharArray());
        mqttConnectOptions.setServerURIs(new String[] { hostUrl });
        return mqttConnectOptions;
    @Bean
    public MqttPahoClientFactory mqttClientFactory() {
        DefaultMqttPahoClientFactory factory = new DefaultMqttPahoClientFactory();
        factory.setConnectionOptions(getReceiverMqttConnectOptions());
        return factory;
    @Bean
    public MessageProducer inbound() {
        String clientId2 = "uuid-" + UUID.randomUUID().toString();
        MqttPahoMessageDrivenChannelAdapter adapter = new MqttPahoMessageDrivenChannelAdapter(clientId2,
//              mqttClientFactory(), "myemail/test");
                mqttClientFactory(), "test", "test/paho");
        adapter.setCompletionTimeout(20000);
        adapter.setConverter(new DefaultPahoMessageConverter());
        adapter.setQos(2);
        adapter.setOutputChannel(mqttInputChannel());
        return adapter;
