Hi all!!
After installing telegraf on my target host i still got the same error : net/http: request canceled while waiting for connection (Client.Timeout exceeded while awaiting headers)
Hello @Annonyme1,
Can you please share your telegraf config?
Also, can you please change debug=True in your config and share the full logs?
Thanks you!

This means Telegraf couldn’t connect to the InfluxDB, there was no response from the server so maybe a firewall is blocking packets.
Firewalld is disabled and for Fortigate firewall i set a rule to open allow on port 8086
