MQTT Broker SSH

Jack Douglas asked 9 months ago

After creating the MQTT broker on a Raspberry Pi Zero W via SSH, I now cannot interact with the code, eg, to shutdown.   What could be the reason, and is it safe to shut it down cold?   I did this with another zero and I think I messed up the EEPROM.

After the flash process is completed, open your microSD card and you should see something similar to the image below:

To do that, go to this link https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B_BzxRImIcd-SWE2NVNPT1FycFE and download a blank file called ssh by click the Download button.

You should have the ssh file (that has no extension) in your Downloads folder.


Move the ssh file to the microSD card as shown below:
