v1.21.3 not starting due to errors without config change

Telegraf

I updated today from 1.21.2 to 1.21.3. In a Raspberry PI, no issues, but an identical config in Ubuntu brings lots of:

and never starts.

Can’t see why same configs fail in one system, not in the other … unless is not telegraf itself but some library that the update is not “updating” ?

reverting to 1.21.2, makes it work again.

Any hint about how to resolve this?

There is an issue with 1.21.3 of getting into an infinite lope when loading mibs. This pr is a work in progress but should hopefully fix the issue. If you are up for testing it that’s great! If not reverting should work until the next patch release comes out.

Let me know if you have any other questions :slight_smile:
