That’s huge problem for me i reverified that many times but without response !
This is the second time i post such an error but i need to now the solution i’am stuck

a) what do the InfluxDB logs on the machine at influx-ip-address tell you is
going on at the same time?
b) have you tried a packet capture for port 8086 on influx-ip-address to see
whether it really is replying to telegraf correctly?
c) can you describe the network setup between the machine running telegraf and
the machine running InfluxDB?

Antony.
a/ in influx machine i don’t have logs ! they are desactivated i think !
b/how to do capture ?
c/machine running telegraf is on my internal network ! and the Influx server is on OVH ( Externel)
I did monitoried more than 30 host using telegraf and this is the first time i got such an error !
I doubt this will show up in the InfluxDB logs since the connection is not established: “canceled while waiting for connection”. I’d guess that most likely this is a firewall issue, make sure the remote system allows connections through on this port.
i’am sure that i’am monitoring my other hosts with the same way and it’s the first time i got that error i think that connectio between telegraf and influxdb is established but the agent cannot write to database !
