malformed JSON string, neither tag ?

I'm also running into this problem with smokeping. Looks a bit like smokeping or the influx client package is expecting a JSON reply, but instead is getting an error, looking at: before "Can't connect to 10....", I think that's what it is seeing where it expects a JSON reply.

In my case, the problem was the port number was wrong. Fixing that removed this error (but still gave me another non-descript error and then I gave up, so I did not actually make smokeping work with influx).
