grep -r “808[678]” /etc
netstat -lptn | grep influx
I tried , No results, both output blank
That is inconsistent with the following:
**Config file is default
[http]
#bind-address = “.8086” (default, commented)
You say you have a default influxdb.conf file (which should have :8086 in it,
and not .8086, but I’ll assume that’s a typo instead of copy&paste from the
file itself), and that that file contains the string “8086”, and yet you say
that the command:
grep -r “808[678]” /etc
produces nothing.
That either means:
a) you have typed at least one of the commands incorrectly
b) your influxdb.conf file is not under /etc (I expect it to be in /etc/influxdb)
c) the file has changed since you told me it contained:
#bind-address = “.8086” (default, commented)
Finally, if “netstat -lptn | grep influx” produced no output, then either:
a) you did not run it as root as requested, or
b) influxdb was not running at the time (please start it and re-run the netstat
command)
Antony.
