docker error- exited code 1

[shaybit]

Hi, I followed the documentation as much as I could and encountered error as decribed below:

1. I created the root folder(named butler-sos-docker) and its subfolders as described here : https://butler-sos.ptarmiganlabs.com/docs/getting_started/install/docker/
2. downloaded the config file from https://github.com/ptarmiganlabs/butler-sos/blob/master/src/config/production_template.yaml, named it production.yaml and moved it to butler-sos-docker/config/
3. Edited the config file and filled the necessary according the page : https://butler-sos.ptarmiganlabs.com/docs/getting_started/setup/
4. Downloaded the docker file from : https://github.com/ptarmiganlabs/butler-sos/blob/master/docs/docker-compose/docker-compose_fullstack_influxdb.yml and named it docker-compose.yml and 
changed only the NODE_ENV variable to be "NODE_ENV=production" since my config file name is productio
5. Added the qlik certificates to the butler-sos-docker/config/certificate folder
6. Enter the terminal to the root folder location and ran docker-compose up then I got the following error

butler-sos | /nodeapp/node_modules/influx/lib/src/schema.js:83

the docker ps command shows:

Thanks for your assistance

The error message suggests a problem around Butler SOS storing data in InfluxDB.
I believe Extraneous tags detected for writing InfluxDB point can occur if are trying to write Butler SOS data to an existing InfluxDB database that has a different schema/data model than Butler SOS expects.

This could happen also if you modify the tags used (e.g. server-type in this case).
For example, if you have been running Butler SOS for a while but then decide to add or remove a tag, this could cause problems as InfluxDB is pretty strict when it comes to its schema.

You could try deleting the Butler SOS database in InfluxDB. I.e. start over.
Butler SOS will create a new database next time it starts.
The downside is that you will loose whatever Butler SOS data you have in that database, but given that Butler SOS deals with operational data, you probably shouldn't keep more than a week or two of historical records in that database.
Usually fine to delete - but that's for you to decide.

This is a fairly well tested use case but we could also be looking at a bug, of course.
I will test things here and see if I can reproduce the problem.

Looks like there is a minor - but important - typo in the sample config file.
Most users tend to just delete those sample tags as they are just examples, but as examples they should of course work.
I'll update the sample config file in the GitHub repository.

I suspect this is what's causing your troubles, but we can't be sure until you have tested of course.
Give it a try and report back here and we'll take it from there.
