18.7 Legacy Series / Re: Upgrade to 18.7.4: telegraf plugin broken?
« on: October 01, 2018, 11:16:30 pm »
OK - here we are with the issue:
There is a conflicting config in telegraf with the log files:
Via the GUI, telegraf is advised to write the log file /var/log/telegraf.log (see above), this is written to the telegraf config file
However, the start script for telegraf in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/telegraf configures:
this causes a conflict where to write ...
Only either or is possible ....
Solution would be to leave the log file entry in telegraf.conf
As I assume that this is again created automatically this requires change in the code
