config show - Unable to connect to database

[123BLiN]

Hello,

I'm very sorry to disturb, it should be something very simple, but I spent an hour with no success.
My config:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Influx-Capacitor>
  <Database Type="InfluxDB" Enabled="true">
    <Url>http://influxdb_domain_name:8086</Url>
    <Username>capacitor</Username>
    <Password>capacitor</Password>
    <Name>my_db</Name>
    <RequestTimeoutMs>15000</RequestTimeoutMs>
  </Database>
</Influx-Capacitor>

when I try to test it in console with config show I always get:
Unable to connect to database
however I'm able to query influxdb with curl:

>Invoke-WebRequest http://influxdb_domain_name:8086/query?q='SHOW DATABASES'
StatusCode        : 200
StatusDescription : OK
Content           : {"results":[{"series":[{"name":"databases","columns":["name"],"values":[["general"],["my_db"]]}]}]}
RawContent        : HTTP/1.1 200 OK

I have:
Influx-capacitor 1.0.17, influxdb 0.9.6.1, windows 2012R2

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

It all looks right to me. I cannot see any issue. And there should be support for version 0.9.6 too. Not sure what to do about this. :/

Hello,
I had the same problem, and was able to run from console "config server". This command created the right entry in database.xml, which looks like this:

http://localhost:8086 dbadmin EAAAAMRCMidx19g0BiQJTlHQyjsmXvN1SqW25kzNMtoTNAPm perfmon

This works, but - despite the documentation - password is somewhat encoded (encrypted?) !?
Hope this helps!
Stéphane.

Sorry for the copy-paste-code mistake, the database.xml looks like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?> <Influx-Capacitor> <Database> <Url>http://localhost:8086</Url> <Username>dbadmin</Username> <Password>EAAAAMRCMidx19g0BiQJTlHQyjsmXvN1SqW25kzNMtoTNAPm</Password> <Name>perfmon</Name> </Database> </Influx-Capacitor>
