I have just installed Chronograf and Kapacitor using APT (InfluxData - Package Repository) on an EC2 instance on Amazon Web Services. Using default configuration for Kapacitor.
Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS
Chronograf 1.4.2.3-1
Kapacitor 1.4.1-1
Influxdb 1.5.0-1
But Chronograf cannot connect to Kapacitor. In the Chronograf UI I click “Configure Kapacitor” on the start page. I have the Kapacitor URL set to “http://localhost:9092”, leaving username/password blank. When I click the “Connect” button I get this error message :
Could not connect to Kapacitor. Check settings.
From the Kapacitor log;

Do I have to do anything more than installing kapacitor?
sudo apt-get install kapacitor
Cheers
