So everything looks ok…
Only when i try to go insertof Influx error: root@odroid:~# influx
Failed to connect to http://localhost:8086: Get http://localhost:8086/ping: dial tcp [::1]:8086: connect: connection refused
Please check your connection settings and ensure ‘influxd’ is running.
I did try the tutor on Influx website.
Not working
I try some youtube not working
I still does not understand what there is going wrong.
Strange part, i cannot see any influx config file…
So i hope there is some help here, for a bricklayer…
if there is no configfile the service should fail to start ,
do you see a file : /etc/influxdb/influxdb.conf ?
can you see the influxd process running with a ps ?
You could stop the service and try to start influxd with the command you see in the service startup messages and see what happens : /usr/bin/influxd -config /etc/influxdb/influxdb.conf
And when i run this:
/usr/bin/influxd -config
This is what i see…

So there is something going wrong…
Influx is running without een cfg file???
So all the tutor etc sayas that ther emust be a config…
Is isntall it like the website from Influxdb
Perhaps you can help me with a other problem…
Where is influx DB?
I do have a infux db on a other Pi…
And i will have this old data into my new Odroid.
I found some tutor on the web.
Only looks very simple for me to place the old db with ftp to the new db…
If the database was started without a config file you can find the directories in the home dir of the user who started the database in .influxdb. I guess you start the database with the user pi ?
You can copy the data , meta and wal directories…
And the configfile …
Only a other strange part…
I install grafana, looks all ok
