I don’t know if its the same issue but my Nuki Pro 4.0 doesn’t read anymore Mqtt messages like I wrote here:

Nuki Pro 4.0 don't receive MQTT messagges

Hi all, It’s from yesterday that when I sent MQTT messages through Home Assistant, the Nuki Pro 4.0 doesn’t do anything. I can’t open or close the Nuki from Home Assistant. Home Assistant can easily read the MQTT messages that the Nuki sends. Nuki Version Firmware 4.1.8 Here some logs: 2024-02-20 22:35:12.315 DEBUG (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.mqtt.client] Received message on nuki/[NUKI_CORRISPONDING_ID]/connected (qos=0): b'true' 2024-02-20 22:35:13.034 DEBUG (MainThread) [homeass…

The Nuki sends mqtt messages when I do something through the app, and I can read them, but it seems that the Nuki it self can’t read mqtt message that I send from both Home Assistant and Mqttx

Since a few hours it is working again but I think it is just a matter of hours until it breaks again :o)

Good Point, IIRC I noticed the same. Will focus on this during the next disconnected outage.

[SchmuFoo (Jan S.)]

@SchmuFoo

Recently I have updated the Beta Firmware in three steps up to Version 4.2.0 and since then it is a total connectivity nightmare. In Detail the MQTT Connection is not avaible nearly all the time.

After the upgrade to 4.1.8 after 1 day smartlock 4 pro is offline

Hi all, After the last upgrade to 4.1.8 all my smart Locks 4 Pro are off line after a period off time, looks like after 1 day some time longer. Before the upgrade they stayed online, no issue’s seen. I need to kill the power and after putting the battery pack, back it is working instantly. I have 4 locks and they have all the same behavior. Only the blue tooth is working. The locks are directly connected to my Asus mesh network. I am using MQTT in Home Assistant. Best regards, Jacob

Confirmed - My SL4P is now again not reachable via MQTT but it is sending state changes to my MQTT Server. Also noticing the malformed packages again, in the Mosquitto Log:

I have noticed that this is only the case until the MQTT Connection is flaged as not working any longer in the Nuki App.

Do you also have the malformed packages on your Broker?

In terms of Wifi/Network there is no general problem until the Broker receives the malformed packet from the Nuki. Then the Broker is sending an TCP RST|Reset to the Nuki to cancel the MQTT Setup/Connection attempt:

In this Context this is interesting for me to learn why the Nuki is Publishing so many Topics after the Basic TCP Network Reconnect:

I have this issue with sl4p: if i restart my server, mqtt doesn’t reconnect. I have to unplug and replug the battery.
Instead, with sl3p, mqtt reconnect automatcly (in about 1 hour).

[Juergen (Jürgen Pansy)]

We’re looking into the issue. Unfortunately we have not been able to reproduce it yet. We’ll keep you posted once we have updates.

[dof250]

Having the same issue. (Two SL4P’s).MQTT has never been stable for me. Randomly loses connection. Sometimes it loses connection when operating the lock. I have setup face recognition which then triggers a unlock cmd to the lock. Sometimes the command works, but it loses connection right after that.

Do you know if this issue Is present in beta fw?
Yesterday i was locked out of my house
I have a finger print Reader that call home assistant script to open the Door… Luckily my wife was in the area and she had the Key in her bag.
It was my fault for forgetting my cell phone at home otherways i was able to open with Nuki app

[dof250]

No, I don’t see malformed packages. It just disconnects.

[till]

I‘m having the same issue with the latest firmware using Mosquitto MQTT Broker. Unfortunately this breaks all my automations with my KNX home. So any hint on the timeline of a fix would be highly appreciated.

[paolo1983]

Hi, this morning another disconnection.
The log of mosquitto mqtt broker reports:
1709881823: Client Nuki_XXXX closed its connection.
Remove and replug the battery pack make mqtt working for about 48hours

[hecho (Luca)]

Hi, I have the same problem!
How to activate mosquitto log? I don’t have any logs under /var/log
I use HA 2024.3.0 and 6.4.0 broker

thanks
Luca

[Juergen (Jürgen Pansy)]

We’ve been able to observe the issue with one of our systems too and have a potential fix for it, which is included in todays 4.2.1 beta.

Please update your Smart Lock and test it and report back if the problem still occurs for you.

[paolo1983]

Installed beta fw. I Will report you in next days

[SchmuFoo (Jan S.)]

Installed 4.2.1 Beta today and after the Update it first didnt connected to my Broker until I have removed the Battery. Since then no new malformed package errors in the Mosquitto Log:
