Need help connecting to MQTT using nRF9160

I can't figure out what I'm missing. I'm not able to send messages using MQTT.

Here's the link to my code: https://github.com/pranav-ether/test/tree/main/mqtt_pub

This are the logs:

  • The mqtt sample did not work for me. I'm using v2.6.1
    Here are the logs for the mqtt sample:

  • Ok, I suggest you try to make the official sample work first.

    How do you build the sample? Do you use TLS? Do you still have data with your SIM card?

    I see you have enabled modem trace, you can share it here for further check.

  • MQTT sample was built using nrf-connect on VS Code with v2.6.0 toolchain & v2.6.1 SDK. I built the sample without any changes.
    Regarding modem trace, what exactly needs to be shared? Wireshark logs?

  • ncs261_mqtt_nrf9160dk.hex

    Looks everything is correct, and only the server has no response to your MQTT client connection request.

    Could you test with the firmware attached to double confirm? You can also verify with MQTT client on your PC, but this may only happen on cellular network.
