Hi. Ive noticed that on the top sketch including a button when im running it its started going into a massive loop section at connecting to mqtt server. Says connected but then trys again. Eventually it stopps or i get the rc2 time out Any suggestions?

Another good project for MQTT powered ESP is this one:
https://github.com/corbanmailloux/esp-mqtt-rgb-led

It allows you to control an RGB led strip/single led or a white led strip/single led via MQTT.
I tested it with home-assistant embedded MQTT and it worked without issue.

The project is also well documented on github (which is rare enough to be pointed out )

I am trying Relay with button Example
But after wifi successful connection
I get an error:
Attempting MQTT connection...failed, rc=2 try again in 5 seconds

I installed mosquitto
run it:
mosquitto -c "c:\Program Files (x86)\mosquitto\mosquitto.conf" -v
but I can't see any respond
can someone help here?

I have a problem in the sketch compilation
There are errors in the library and I can not get out

THESE ARE MY MISTAKES
