Hello Madhumati,
this screen shot looks good.
But after starting InfluxDB application on Windows you need to create a database first. You can name it "armin", "madhumati", "netpi" or anything else. You can have multiple databases running under InfluxDB at the same time, but all with different names. Here find explained https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1...._download/ how to proceed to create a database with a windows console.
Later - without a database name- you cannot use InfluxDB Node-RED to write to a database since InfluxDB addressing scheme including Node-RED InfluxDB node needs next to the IP address also the name of the database where to write to.
Since running a time series data base like InfluxDB under windows or other systems is of interest for others we will be providing an example how to get a InfluxDB up and running today in another thread. We will be showing how to create a database without use of a console but within a simple Node-RED and then how to access it.
Thx
