Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 18.04.6 LTS
Release: 18.04
Codename: bionic
Installed InfluxDB according to the manual
Installed InfluxDB CLI according to the manual
Made the initial configuration in InfluxBD UI(http://localhost:8086/) by setting user, password and operator token.
$ influx version
Influx CLI 2.5.0 (git: 3285a03) build_date: 2022-11-01T16:32:06Z
Provide required authentication credentials.
influx config create --config-name default \
--host-url http://localhost:8086 \
--org myInitialOrg \
--token myOperatorToken \
--active
Active Name URL Org
* default http://localhost:8086 myInitialOrg
$ influx config
Active Name URL Org
* default http://localhost:8086 myInitialOrg
Next, I get a 401 response code for almost all commands:
$ influx user list
Error: failed to list users: 401 Unauthorized: unauthorized access
$ influx auth list
Error: could not find authorization with given parameters: 401 Unauthorized: unauthorized access
$ influx org list
Error: failed to list orgs: 401 Unauthorized: unauthorized access
$ influx dashboards
Error: failed to find dashboards: 401 Unauthorized: unauthorized access
...
Here are the configuration files + logs + server status:
$ nano ~/.influxdbv2/configs
[default]
url = "http://localhost:8086"
token = "myOperatorToken"
org = "myInitialOrg"
active = true

When I want to create an all access token through InfluxDB CLI, it does not see the organization created through InfluxBD UI:
$ influx auth create \
> --all-access \
> --host http://localhost:8086 \
> --org myInitialOrg \
> --token myOperatorToken
Error: failed to lookup org with name "myInitialOrg": 401 Unauthorized: unauthorized access
I can create organizations, buckets and such in InfluxBD UI, but I can't do almost anything in CLI. :( I understand that there is some kind of mess with user rights, but I don't understand where to look for the reason.
I tested installation InfluxBD under root and under a normal user. After starting the daemon, I get an authorization error:

Through the web interface(InfluxBD UI), I created a initial user + operator token + initial organization + initial bucket. Commands using the operator token also give an authorization error:
~$ influx user list -t web-token
Error: failed to list users: 401 Unauthorized: unauthorized access
~$ influx auth list -t web-token
Error: could not find authorization with given parameters: 401 Unauthorized: unauthorized access
~$ influx auth list -u web-user -t "web-token"
Error: could not find authorization with given parameters: 401 Unauthorized: unauthorized access
I understand that this is not a completely correct answer for the situation, but it solved the problem in general. After switching to Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS, absolutely all problems were solved. Aggressive decision :(
