Thanks, though that makes the error I am getting even more puzzling. By original code, do you mean this version (https://github.com/matthewwall/weewx-influx)? If so, does the original code support token-based authentication and connect with influxdb 2.0 databases? I thought I would need need to use the david lutz version to send data to an influx 2.0 database with a token, org and bucket: https://github.com/matthewwall/weewx-influx/issues/28
