Getting errors writing messages between Cloud and Device and vice versa about azure-iot-cli-extension

Hi @avinnako.

Can you please describe your workflow and what command is not working?

Simple c2d scenario:

Send c2d message to device

az iot device c2d-message send -d mydevice -n myhub --data "hello world!"

Receive c2d message

az iot device c2d-message receive -d mydevice -n myhub

Simple d2c scenario:

Run event monitor in a dedicated shell (assumes default msg endpoint)

az iot hub monitor-events -n myhub

Send d2c messages, and see event in monitor

az iot device send-d2c-message -n myhub -d mydevice

The more detail you provide the better for troubleshooting.

I am no longer having communication issues from cloud to device. But I am still getting "[WinError 10061] No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it" when i try to send message from device to cloud.

I ran this command "az iot device send-d2c-message -n AVIoTHubTest -d Test-device-02" and "az iot device send-d2c-message -n AVIoTHubTest -d Test-device-02 --data "Hello World!"" and i got the same error: "[WinError 10061] No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it" while trying from powershell.

I am getting "NotConnectedError: connect ECONNREFUSED XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:8883" while trying from VS Code, when trying to send message from device to cloud.

Sorry for the delayed response. Assuming you resolved the issue. You can comment here if its still a problem and we can re-open the issue. If its still a problem my first inclination is a port issue, both vscode and the CLI using port 8883 for mqtt connection.
