1st access, and db creation

hi, i downloaded latest release and created a folder "influxui" under /var/www/html and unzipped the release zip file in there... opening http://ip/influxui gives the main interface, and says "something went wrong"... so i clicked on SETTINGS to add a test server (http://localhost:8086) and it went back to home site http://ip/#/settings, which does not exist (it should be, eventually, http://ip/influxui/#/settings i think)... so running in a subfolder is not working?

then i tried to move all to www root folder, and it worked, i selected the settings, added the server, and it said "no database found"... so, creating a database is not available as option, this ui is only to manage existing db?

thanks

I could not get anywhere either on a Raspberry Pi with NGINX and Buster. I'm sure somewhere it will say how to point to my working influx setup but I cant see it.

to add the server, you need to click the top right link "settings", then i just put in: http://localhost:8086 and gave it a name, but this will ONLY work if the zip file is unzipped in the main folder of the http server you use...

beware @scargill if you do that, it will overwrite your index.html file... better renaming yours to index.php, it will work anyway even if no php code is in there, but pure html

Same issue here.

As far as I can see the query button is not working properly. Once you added the server, it appears that nothing works.

If you delete the last part of the url (e.g. the #/settings/ part) than it works as expected. The funky thing is that once you did so and you queried the server, afterwards it does work and you can properly flip back and forth

Bump, the latest release has the same issue when trying to go to settings page.
