No connection to InfluxDB after Update to 3.1

After the update in openhabian-config I cannot connect to my influxDB any more.

Trying to start influxd (in version 1.8.9) gives me:

The openhab-log gives this error:

[ERROR] [org.influxdb.impl.BatchProcessor    ] - Batch could not be sent. Data will be lost
org.influxdb.InfluxDBIOException: java.net.ConnectException: Failed to connect to localhost/127.0.0.1:8086
	at org.influxdb.impl.InfluxDBImpl.execute(InfluxDBImpl.java:831) ~[bundleFile:?]

I tried to apply some hints out of the forum with chmod, controlled my config but still the same.
I even tried to reinstall influxDB using the openhabian-config but even this ends with an error.

Any ideas? Regards, Fred

Looks like influxd runs on port 8088 and openhab tries to connect to port 8086.

Thanks for the hint but I think InfluxDB uses both ports: 8086 an 8088.
And it seems 8086 is missing!

From https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.8/administration/ports/

InfluxDB ports

Enabled ports

8086

The default port that runs the InfluxDB HTTP service. Configure this port in the configuration file.

8088

The default port used by the RPC service for RPC calls made by the CLI for backup and restore operations (influxdb backup and influxd restore). Configure this port in the configuration file.

But your list shows it is in use, by influxdb. Seeing as the instance that you tried to start could not grab 8088 because it was in use, this suggests there are two instances here?
