> I know this is not a Node-Red issue per se, but I'm sure some are interested. A few weeks ago I updated my pi4, which had a working v1.8.6 influxdb. Not until today, did I try to access it via Grafana only to be greeted by this error 'InfluxDB Error: Bad Gateway' after some RPi CLI I find Influx is not running, after an hour of reading online, trying the CHMOD fix (did not work), uninstalling directly installing later versions from v1.8.7 through to latest version; still I got the same error: …

InfluxDB introduced a few problems since version 1.8.7. It is recommended to downgrade to v1.8.6 until a stable fix comes out.

We have thousands of times more data than yours coming in every day. Using RPI3b. No single problem so far.

See if v1.8.6 solves your problem.
