MacOS Big Sur, following the steps in the Get started with InfluxDB
brew install influxdb # v2.0.4 installed
influx setup # user name, bucket, retention configured ok
Opening http://localhost:8086 always returns 500 Internal Server Error
I run LuLu for port monitoring, but it successfully recognized influxd and created and Allow rule. I also tried disabling LuLu altogether, same result.

I am having this same problem, I have seen a few people ask on slack but there is no response anywhere.

Same issue with a fresh install from homebrew. Appears to be listening but not seeing anything from the influxd logs…

Following this guide:
https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v2.0/get-started/
…
I
1. Installed with homebrew
2. ran `influxd` in a terminal
3. Navigated to localhost:8086
This resulted in a 500 Internal Server Error
I see nothing in the logging in the terminal that would indicate whats wrong, and searching the usual places for logs yielded no influx log file.

__Environment info:__
Env:
Darwin 20.3.0 x86_64
version:
InfluxDB 2.0.4 (git: none) build_date: 2021-04-03T16:40:31Z
__Config:__
All default. I literally ran `brew install influxdb` and then `influxd`
__Logs:__
I was unable to find the log file, and searching the web documentation did not yield its location. Perhaps put the path in the template?
I should also mention that configuring the system with `influx setup` worked, but I still cannot log into the UI, I am greeted only with the 500 internal server error. This prevents me from accessing the auth token that was created at setup

###
- [X] I ran `brew update` and am still able to reproduce my issue.
- [X] I have resolved all warnings from `brew doctor` and that did not fix my problem.
### What were you trying to do (and why)?
Users have been [reporting](https://github.com/influxdata/influxdb/issues/21133) in the `influxdb` repo that our [getting started guide](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v2.0/get-started/) doesn't work when installing `influxd` via Homebrew.
1. `brew install influxdb`
2. `influxd` to start the server
### What happened (include all command output)?
First, this error:
```

```
But then if I navigate to `http://localhost:8086`, the webpage returns:
```
500 Internal Server Error
```
### What did you expect to happen?
I expected:
1. The `influxd` binary installed via `brew` to be configured so that it doesn't try to write data into `/root` by default
2. The `influxd` binary installed via `brew` to successfully serve up UI assets
### Step-by-step reproduction instructions (by running `brew` commands)
```shell
brew install influxdb
mkdir test-data
INFLUXD_BOLT_PATH=./test-data/influxd.bolt INFLUXD_ENGINE_PATH=./test-data/engine influxd &
# Wait for a log containing 'Listening...'
open http://localhost:8086
```
