Why am I unable to connect to hivemq using mqtt modular input app?

I created an mqtt input for our hivemq server. However, it fails to connect. The splunkd.log contains entries like these. I am able to connect using mqttspy to the same hivemq instance, and verified connectivity from the Splunk server to the VM running hivemq. Also verified the port number.
Any help appreciated.
