Localhost:8086/ready unavailable

[vinh_lee]

Hi guys,
I am so confused right now because I have encountered this issue twice and don’t know how to fix it.
My problem is when I try to restart my influxdb with the “system service influxdb start” command. It showed the error "localhost:8086/ready unavailable after X attempt.
When I first installed it, I tried to start and stop the service and it worked fine. But this error happens when I let my service run for a while.
I am afraid that my log is very long and it is hard for you to read so I put my log in txt file.
I really need your help. Please give me some advice.
Thank you all so much.

Hello @vinh_lee,
I’m seeing a “slice bounds out of range”
This can be due to a data corruption issue.
This person solved it by removing the WAL

Can no longer start influxdb - panic: runtime error: slice bounds out of range

I have had influxdb 0.10.0 running very well on Ubuntu 14.04 for over a year. I rebooted and now influx will not start. I have searched here and googled but not managed to sort it. I found suggestions that it may be a corrupted file and that deleting the wal directory may help. I tried that to no avail. I thought of upgrading to newer version to see if it gave better diagnostics but I believe I would first have to export the data, which can’t be done unless it is running. I hope someone here…

And this

HELP: influxdb cannot start back up - 'panic: runtime error: slice bounds out of range'

I hope those help!

Hi @Anaisdg ,
I have tried to delete the WAL file. So what I did was, stopped the service and deleted WAL then started the service again. However, the WAL files were generated after I started the service.
