InfluxDB 2

Hi there,

I’m deployng influxdb on docker (on a Server) using as storage for the data a CIFS share on my Nas.

I get this error:

}

This is my docker compose file:

version: "3"
services:
  influxdb:
    container_name: InfluxDb2
    image: influxdb:latest
    networks:
      - influxdb_grafana_net
    env_file:
      - influxv2.env
    volumes:
      - influxdb_cifs:/var/lib/influxdb2
      #- "/srv/docker/volumes/influxdb:/var/lib/influxdb2:rw"
    ports:
      - 8086:8086
    restart: always

volumes:
  influxdb_cifs:
    driver_opts:
      type: cifs
      o: username=influxdb,password=xxxxxx,uid=1000,gid=1000,vers=3.0
      device: //192.168.10.26/VM_Storage/InfluxDB

networks:
    influxdb_grafana_net:  
        name: influxdb_grafana_net

The container has access to the shared folder because I see this folder inside of network share:

  • Engine folder
  • influxd.sqlite

If I change the volume to one local volume with

- "/srv/docker/volumes/influxdb:/var/lib/influxdb2:rw"

everything works.

Any suggestion how to save the data on my NAS?

Thank you in advance!

Hello @fedex03,
I’m sorry I haven’t seen his error before.
Silly question but did you try :rw on the desired mount?
There’s these related issues:

It seems like its a nas share issue. I would consider reaching out for support through them.
