Strange issues with Grafana connection to influxdb

Setup, Configuration and Use Installation
1

RPI 5 latest with openHAB 4.2.3 (64 bit) fresh install just influxdb database restored from the backup, all permissions in place for users. Openhab InfluxDB Persistence works without issues.
Grafana v11.3.1
Influxdb v1.11.8
When creating new data source from grafana I get error:

Post "http://192.168.xxx.xxx:8086/query?db=openhab_db&epoch=ms": dial tcp 192.168.xxx.xxx:8086: connect: connection refused error reading influxDB

With old data source where Influxdb v1.8.10 no any issues, can add without any errors.

Also on new Influxdb I don’t see database “_internal” which for example can be found on v1.8.10

Any ideas ?

did some connectivity test via PowerShell script:

PS C:\Users\Egis> Test-Port -Address new_influxdb -Port 8086
False
PS C:\Users\Egis> Test-Port -Address old_influxdb -Port 8086
True

found yesterday error, seems by default 8086 bind only for localhost and not available from “outside”

openhabian@openhabian:~ $ ss -lntu | grep 8086
tcp   LISTEN 0      4096                127.0.0.1:8086       0.0.0.0:*

after /etc/influxdb/influxdb.conf edit

# The bind address used by the HTTP service.
   bind-address = ":8086"

and

sudo systemctl restart influxdb

all fine now :slight_smile:

@mstormi I used latest build for RPI5, this file /etc/influxdb/influxdb.conf is not “touched” during install ?
