Error posting into VictoriaMetrics

[maxkushnir]

Hi. As VictoriaMetrics has an Influx connector and a possibility to store Influx data, I tried to add VictoriaMetrics host ( "Hostname": "http://ip:8480/insert/0/influx/write") instead of InfluxDB ( "Hostname": "http://ip:8086").
Unfortunately, I got two issues:

1. Random port assigning for DB.
2. Issue with parsing of address /insert/0/influx/write.
   Log example:
   Starting vsphere-influxdb-custom with config file /etc/vsphere-influxdb-custom.json
   Successfully connected to Influx
   Connecting to vcenter: esxi-xxxxxxx.xxx
   Setting up query inventory of vcenter: esxi-xxxxxxx.xxx
   remoteAddr: "xxxxxxx:42454"; cannot parse path "/write": cannot find {prefix}
   Connecting to vcenter: esxi-xxxxxxx
   Setting up query inventory of vcenter: esxi-xxxxxxx.xxx
   remoteAddr: "xxxxxxx:42468"; cannot parse path "/write": cannot find {prefix}

Can you help with it?

Try removing /write suffix from the url: http://ip:8480/insert/0/influx. It looks the /write suffix is automatically added by the client before sending the metrics to the given url.
