What is your config?

I don’t think i have one. As far as i understand (maybe wrong?) to setup influxdb i need to run it and connect via web interface to setup (or do that via CLI) but this requires influxd running, which i cant start, because of this Nats error

“fixed” by installing docker.

Had issues btw with docker too, but all thats needed was reboot due to error with iptables.

Perhaps it was the issue with influxdb, since both of issues seems related to networking.
