Hi Emerik, What is the operating system for the host running Telegraf? We should check what particular error the exit status 1 means for your OS. Does the user bapplipuppet exist on the system and do you still see this same error in stdout when manually executing the telegraf binary as root e.g. "./telegraf -config /etc/telegraf/telegraf.conf" ? -- Remember to include the InfluxDB version number with all issue reports --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "InfluxDB" group.
