<![CDATA[missing tag error on influxdb]]>hello,
I just installed influx db on the same RPi where mycontroller runs, just for testing.

I get this error, no matter which variable I am sending:
2020-11-12 11:43:01,414 ERROR [mc-th-pool-4] [org.mycontroller.standalone.externalserver.driver.DriverInfluxDB:58] Exception, fan_controller_7_ambient_1_temperature,7_1_temperature value=26 1605177781357000000
org.influxdb.InfluxDBException$UnableToParseException: unable to parse 'fan_controller_7_ambient_1_temperature,7_1_temperature value=26 1605177781357000000': missing tag value

this is the settings screenshot

any help is appreciated.
Franco

data
                    .append(getVariableKey(sensorVariable, _config.getKeyFormat()))
                    .append(",").append(getVariableKey(sensorVariable, _config.getTags()))
                    .append(" value=").append(getValue(sensorVariable))
                    .append(" ").append(sensorVariable.getTimestamp()).append("000000");
