Influx db setup

I have recently upgraded for 4.1.2-wb and I also swicth to Razberry 7 Pro
When I restored the backup to get my network back, Influx db and the Base Module were uninstalled.
So I reinstalled both.
But now to come to set up Influx db, no matter what I do, the form wont accept the following fields: server, database, username, password and interval.
I have tried so many times - I have copied exactly what I had before.Everytime I enter the field values there is no error on Save, but if I re-open the settings all the entries are gone. For server I have tried http://<ip>> as well as just <<ip>>

Any thoughts please ?

Thanks
Tim

To log in and use the InfluxDB user interface, navigate to localhost:8086 in the browser.
Using the left menu bar, go to Load Data API Tokens.
Select Full Access API Token when you click + Generate API Token.
Click Save after entering a description for the API token.
Make a copy of the generated token and place it in a safe place.
Set up authentication information.

Can you provide more information on how to set up authentication in InfluxDB? It's hard to me.

For me in future.
1) "InfluxDb Statistics Collector" v1.07 in only compatible with InfluxDB v1, not v2
2) "Database Server URL" field should be filled as "localhost" or "192.168.1.10", but not "http://localhost:8086/write" or "http://192.168.1.10:8086/write" as written in the description. Otherwise you will get an "Could not post InfluxDb statistics. Please check log files for details" error
