Compatibility with Grafana Version 12.4.1

[ms2rhb]

Describe the bug

After the Grafana Update from 11.6.0 to 12.4.1, the Ininity PlugIn was unable to start. Also, an "Infinity- Re-Installation" did not solve the problem.

Steps to reproduce

Precondition:
Install Grafana 11.6.0
Install Infinity Plugin: 3.4.1
Update Grafana to 12.4.1
--> After the Update the Infinity PlugIn is not running.

Sample Data

We fetched the following Error Message on the Grafana Instance Log:

I thought is only me...
I got the same error as the above screenshot.

Plugin disabled
This plugin failed to start. Server logs can provide more information.

In my case, the error was caused by the FUSE mount I was using for the Grafana container volume.

To fix this, I created a custom Grafana container:

FROM grafana/grafana:12.4.2
USER root
RUN mkdir -p /opt/plugins && \
    grafana cli --pluginsDir /opt/plugins plugins install yesoreyeram-infinity-datasource && \
    chmod +x /opt/plugins/yesoreyeram-infinity-datasource/gpx_infinity_linux_amd64 && \
    chown -R grafana:root /opt/plugins && \
    chmod -R 775 /opt/plugins
USER grafana
