InfluxDB in docker-compose not able to allow connections

Question

I am trying to set up TICK-Stack together with RabbitMQ in docker-compose, but I fail on connecting anything to InfluxDB. Whatever I try I always get a connection refused error. Can someone explain to me how to set this stack up so it works?

What I also saw, is that when I create the container for the first time, that there is no new database created. Is there an issue with the official container?

Try changing your influx image to the following one

  influxdb:
    image: quay.io/influxdb/influxdb:v2.0.3
    container_name: influxdb
    restart: always
    networks:
      - monitoring
    environment:
      - INFLUXDB_DB=telegraf
      - INFLUXDB_USER=telegraf
      - INFLUXDB_ADMIN_ENABLED=true
      - INFLUXDB_ADMIN_USER=admin
      - INFLUXDB_ADMIN_PASSWORD=admin
    volumes:
      - ./influxdb/data:/var/lib/influxdb
      - ./influxdb/config/:/etc/influxdb/
    ports:
      - "8086:8086"
      - "8082:8082"
      - "8089:8089/udp"
