I've tried to run the default sandbox app on both Windows 10 and Ubuntu 18.04.2 with the same result. Is this a problem with the sandbox app or my usage?

I am doing a git clone of the sandbox, then running sandbox up from inside a command prompt and get the following error:

Hello,

I have installed docker toolbox on my Mac Pro.

I cloned this sandbox and did ./sandbox up
InfluxDB and Telegrap containers are running successfully

But Chronograph failed with the below error [and I am absolutely certain that there is no Chronograph running and i made sure that there is no port conflict]

level=error msg="Unable to open boltdb; is there a chronograf already running? invalid argument" component=boltstore

And Kapacitor failed with the below error

*[run] 2017/04/08 19:53:26 E! open server: open service storage.Service: open boltdb @ "/var/lib/kapacitor/kapacitor.db": invalid argument

What am i doing wrong?

Please advice.

Hi

I am using ubuntu.
While starting, I had to change chronograf version to 1.3.5.0 in yaml file.
Now I don't get error while starting, i.e. ./sandbox up.

But I can't access from UI, localhost:9000 / localhost:8888.

Regards
Prashant

On Mac OS I can't find the way to post messages to UDP socket from my Java program.
This is what I added to default configuration that comes with Sandbox:

[[inputs.socket_listener]] service_address = "udp://:8094" data_format = "influx"

Then I use
echo "mymeasurement,my_tag_key=mytagvalue my_field=\"my field value\"" | nc -u localhost 8094
but the measurement is not being posted to the InfluxDB. I suspect this is something about Docker networking, but have no idea, how to fix it..

Opening tabs in browser...
[15790:15790:1109/205555.741431:ERROR:zygote_host_impl_linux.cc(88)] Running as root without --no-sandbox is not supported. See https://crbug.com/638180.

To properly start docker container to listen UDP inputs, needs a fix in docker-compose.yml.

In influxdb service or conteiner, today has this:

    ports:
      # The API for InfluxDB is served on port 8086
      - "8086:8086"
      - "8082:8082"
      # UDP Port
      - "8089:8089"

but you need specify the port bind as UDP using:

    ports:
      # The API for InfluxDB is served on port 8086
      - "8086:8086"
      - "8082:8082"
      # UDP Port
      - "8089:8089/udp"

The default configuration of the Splunk Forwarder uses 8089 for local control. This leads to being unable to start the sandbox on my work laptop where splunk is enabled and where I cannot reconfigure the port it uses. Would there be a reasonable alternative choice for the UDP port other than 8089?

I cannot find any info on the best practice for starting the sandbox on boot. Is is possible to give us some guidance and include it in the documentation?

I'm following the TICK stack getting setup documentation. Executing ./sandbox up fails with the following message:

 => CANCELED ...
  failed to parse stage name "kapacitor:kapacitor:latest": invalid reference format

The thing to pay attention to here is kapacitor:kapacitor:latest. That is likely because of the .env which adds the image name to the tag variables.

Replacing the contents of the .env from

TELEGRAF_TAG=telegraf:latest
INFLUXDB_TAG=influxdb:1.8
CHRONOGRAF_TAG=chronograf:latest
KAPACITOR_TAG=kapacitor:latest

to

TELEGRAF_TAG=latest
INFLUXDB_TAG=1.8
CHRONOGRAF_TAG=latest
KAPACITOR_TAG=latest

fixed the issue

It would be nice to have a flag, that indicates that TICK stack should be automatically restarted e.g. after reboot (as it happens when one runs: docker run --restart always ...). For now I'm using cron.
Or maybe just set restart always policy as a default, then it is easy I guess - just adding: restart: always for all services in docker-compose.yml.

Problem

After cloning the repo, I tried to run ./sandbox up and encounter the follow errors. It looks like 1.5.0 is missing in https://hub.docker.com/r/library/influxdb/tags/.

Pulling influxdb (influxdb:1.5.0)...
ERROR: manifest for influxdb:1.5.0 not found

Proposed Solution

Is that possible to push the influxdb 1.5.0 to docker hub? Thank you!

Hey guys,

I am running Ubuntu 20.04 and I cloned https://github.com/influxdata/sandbox.git for installation. I installed docker version 26.1.3, build b72abbb and docker-compose version 1.29.2, build 5becea4c.

Logs of chronograf give this:

./sandbox logs chronograf
Using latest, stable releases
Following the logs from the chronograf container...
Attaching to sandbox_chronograf_1
chronograf_1     | time="2024-05-19T13:24:21Z" level=error msg="Unable to create bolt clientUnable to open boltdb; is there a chronograf already running?  open /var/lib/chronograf/chronograf-v1.db: permission denied"
sandbox_chronograf_1 exited with code 1

The documentation works fine and is available in the browser. Maybe someone know what to do.

I think making it easy to use the influx repl shell for running flux qeuries against the sandbox would be nice. I propose extending the ./sandbox influxdb command with a repl argument.

$ ./sandbox influxdb repl

Entering the influx repl...
Get your flux on!

I'm trying to run the sandbox through the Docker Toolbox on Windows 7 and everything goes as it should until opening the tabs in the browser.

There are many browsers but Docker doesnt seem to find any.

Any ideas?

while running the Sanbox up facing an issue saying:

Error response from daemon: invalid mount config for type "bind": bind source path does not exist: /Users/username/Documents/sandbox-master/chronograf/data
could anyone would help me out on this..much appreciated.thanks

Fixed by moving Alpine from 3.4 to 3.6 in documentation Dockerfile, as all of the other images already support linux/arm.

we should use a .src file to pre-define the chronograf connection to influx to avoid things like this: #21

Hi,

I'm trying to follow the getting started documentation. I followed the instructions and ran ./sandbox up
the web site start up OK but then when navigating to the "Hosts Lists" I get an "Unable to get hosts error"

Looking at the containers I see sandbox_kapacitor_1 has stopped.
looking at the logs I see the following

PS C:\Program Files\docker\sandbox>

It appears environment variable TYPE is not set as noted by others. If that is the case what would be the best way to address this issue?
.yml files has the following:
dockerfile: ./${TYPE}/Dockerfile
.env file has no setting for TEMP
.env-latest has the following;
export TYPE=latest
.env-nightly
export TYPE=nightly

Would it make a difference if I clone the repo. I downloaded a zipfile.

Suggestion to add the max openfile limits to the docker compose file for influxdb

However, when receiving the MQTT data I get the following error when running telegraf --debug:

Chronograf and Kapacitor say
/entrypoint.sh: line 12: /usr/bin/chronograf: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error

sandbox_documentation is built; however, during execution it says:
Cannot start service documentation: oci runtime error: container_linux.go:265: starting container process caused "exec: \"/documentation/documentation\": permission denied"

After running docker-compose up or sandbox up and trying to add a new source I'm getting this error message.

level=error msg="Error message Error contacting source" component=server http_status =400 

Everybody runs influx along grafana and the port 3000 is already taken in this configuration. The sandbox choose to use the same one

I'm trying to use this sandbox to try out the TICK stack, the other repository "TICK-stack" seems quite outdated with v1.3.

Anyway on a vanilla system it fails:

My environment is Ubuntu 16.04 on Cloud.
When I try to type './sandbox up' command, this error was shown,

Opening tabs in browser...

How can I fix it?

Please give me advice ~

When 1.x is running on Ubuntun 20 ARM7, and the localhost:3010 failed. Do you have any clue? Thanks.

I left sandbox running up for 24 hours (forgot to shut it down) on Windows 10 machine.
It generated ~40 GB of TSM files, each 1.9MB in size.

Is this expected behaviour?

Hi

I have just cloned the repo and run the ./sandbox up script.

But in looking at Chronograf, I see the following:

time="2018-03-23T17:33:06Z" level=error msg="Unable to open boltdb; is there a chronograf already running? invalid argument" component=boltstore

I'm running Docker version 18.01.0-ce, build 03596f5 on Mac OS X 10.12.6

Kapacitor also gives and error, which is likely related:

ts=2018-03-23T17:33:06.239Z lvl=error msg="encountered error" service=run err="open server: open service *storage.Service: open boltdb @ \"/var/lib/kapacitor/kapacitor.db\": invalid argument" run: open server: open service *storage.Service: open boltdb @ "/var/lib/kapacitor/kapacitor.db": invalid argument

Scenario:

git clone 
./sandbox up
http://localhost:3000/

Problem:

• Link to Chronograf docs yields 404

Current:

https://docs.influxdata.com/chronograf/v1.2

Proposed:

https://docs.influxdata.com/chronograf/v1.3/

To note:

• InfluxDB, Kapacitor and Telegraf point to v1.2

The instructions say to configure Kapacitor by selecting the it from the gear icon in the sidebar. Doesn't look like it's in there anymore.
