Out of the box the docker image doesn't work - Error: Address not available

[ashtonian]

docker run elcipse-mosquitto -p 1883:1883 doesn't serve anything. This makes the docker image useless for testing pipelines.

Take a look at this thread:

https://github.com/eclipse/mosquitto/issues/1078

For me, after 4 hours of trying every single solution on the page, nuking the entire directory structure and rebuilding multiple times, even setting the permissions to 777 in every single directory mosquitto has access to throws a "permissions error" from mosquitto. You have to set everything up not according the the documentation at all, apparently.

The mosquitto docker image is fundamentally broken. I have never seen a container that couldn't even resolve a fundamental missing config file without being unable to start.
