Well what seems to be wrong with it?
What version of node-red are you running?
What platform?

You will have to check the full Node-RED log to see the details of the error the aedes node is logging.

It depends how you are running Node-RED. If you can share some details, we'll be able to help

I just installed Aedes via Manage Palette.
I added the Aedes node once to any flow, double click on it & accept the defaults and it works. But I'm running Node-red on Linux. Not much help, sorry.
