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…

Just an update. The latest InfluxDB release 1.8.10 fixed the months-long bug. Running extensive testing at the moment. So far 1.8.10 is pretty stable and it appears to run faster and smoother than before.

[image] davidz: etc/systemd/system/influxd.service Thank you for this, it is much appreciated. Although the experimenter in me wants to do this, I am going to leave things as they are until the new release. At the end of the day, I am just not that good to debug problems with the software. …

It is a wise idea. It is the best to let the official release fix the bug, instead of spending lots of effort on customizing it. Before the fix happens, it is the best to stay at 1.8.6 :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Commenting out Type=forking worked perfectly for me!!!! Thank you!!!

Just found this thread after my setup on a pi zero is now broken after updating. For some reason influxd is now trying to run on port 8088. The influx command still tries to connect on 8086. Looks like a full system restore may be in order.

Check in the influxdb conf file, probably /etc/influxdb/influxdb.conf

I had exactly this problem, and downloading influxdb_1.8.6_armhf.deb from the link at the top of this thread, reinstalling as per mudwalker's instructions, cured it for me. It's clearly a problem with 1.8.9

[image] mudwalker: Just for the record: Downloaded from the link above sudo dpkg -i influxdb_1.8.6_armhf.deb sudo apt-mark hold influxdb I am stuck with high CPU load by the influxd process. I was able to fix the problem that after a reboot I got the "connect: connection refused'" error du…

Download from this link to your Download directory... https://newreleases.io/project/github/influxdata/influxdb/release/v1.8.6 Change directory to Download directory cd ./Downloads and then input the commands above... sudo dpkg -i influxdb_1.8.6_armhf.deb sudo apt-mark hold influxdb (Assuming…

Thanks 'mudwalker'. First I stopped all input from node-red to influxdb sudo systemctl stop influxdb (to stop the influxdb, do not know if this is needed) sudo dpkg -i influxdb_1.8.6_armhf.deb (from the directory where I downloaded the .deb file) sudo systemctl start influxdb sudo apt-mark hold i…

As mentioned previously, look in the logs. When something unexpected is happening that is usually the first thing to do.

Since this is no longer about problems with an upgrade from 1.8.6 (as you are back on 1.8.6) I will make some suggestions back on the original thread.
