hello, i have succesfuly created cloudflare tunnel for Nodered (e-book SmartHome, pg 383-391), but I cant create the another one for Influx DB. I want to add the connector, but system writes this error:
ERR error generating service template error=”cloudflared service is already installed at /etc/systemd/system/cloudflared.service; if you are running a cloudflared tunnel, you can point it to multiple origins, avoiding the need to run more than one cloudflared service in the same machine; otherwise if you are really sure, you can do `cloudflared service uninstall` to clean up the existing service and then try again this command”
what to do?

Hi.
Are you creating different subdomains?
One for Node-RED and another for InfluxDB?

So, solved (after two days 🙂 ).
On site 391 you write “Create another tunnel by clicking on the Create a tunnel button. This new tunnel is for you to access InfluxDB.” That is wrong, it shoud be : Configure your existing tunnel, click “Add a public hostname” and then fill influxdb subdomaine … That means two subdomains under one tunnel, not two tunnels.
Now it works perfectly. Nice day, Frantisek

Hi.
I’m sorry for that issue.
You’re right. It is not explained properly. I already edited that section for the next eBook update.
Thank you for your patience.
I’ll mark this issue as resolved. If you need further help, you just need to open a new question in our forum.
Regards,
Sara
