mosquitto in Docker: logs not available

[schneich]

Hi,

I have started HomeAssistant in Docker and had to start a container with mosquitto as well. It all works perfectly fine, except the mosquitto logging is not visible to docker/portainer. There is a log file, with contains all logs, but I did configure it otherwise. -> log_dest stdout
What do I need to change to get the logs into the docker console/portainer? As the logging is not working, I was wondering, what else from my config is not working?

okay, I found my error. I had two mosquitto.conf files in two different locations my docker folders. I was editing the wrong one...
