Install and configur grafana on Windows that has no internet connection

  • What Grafana version and what operating system are you using?
    Download the zip file grafana-enterprise-10.2.1.windows-amd64
    On windows 10 Enterprise LTSC without internet connection

  • What are you trying to achieve?
    Running Grafana on Windows using InfluxDB as datasource

  • How are you trying to achieve it?
    Follow the step proposed in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NlmArL07Vgc

  • What happened?
    When enter http://localhost:3000 in firefox (87.0 (64-bit)), it displays:

If you’re seeing this Grafana has failed to load its application files

  1. This could be caused by your reverse proxy settings.

  2. If you host grafana under subpath make sure your grafana.ini root_url setting includes subpath. If not using a reverse proxy make sure to set serve_from_sub_path to true.

  3. If you have a local dev build make sure you build frontend using: yarn start, or yarn build

  4. Sometimes restarting grafana-server can help

  5. Check if you are using a non-supported browser. For more information, refer to the list of supported browsers.

  • What did you expect to happen?
    I expect to connect grafana

  • Can you copy/paste the configuration(s) that you are having problems with?
    Can’t attach .ini file

  • Did you receive any errors in the Grafana UI or in related logs? If so, please tell us exactly what they were.
    Please find the logs in attachment

  • Did you follow any online instructions? If so, what is the URL?
    I followed the video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NlmArL07Vgc
    I also created influxdb.yaml in C:\Grafana\conf\provisioning\datasources as following:

# # config file version

# # list of datasources that should be deleted from the database

Welcome @yanggao

Let’s first start things with a simple install

Hi @yosiasz ,

Thank you very much for your response. I followed the steps and then started Grafana, but I encountered the error attached. Please note that my Windows PC does not have an internet connection.
