We are using the 1-click-installed variant of the kubernetes monitoring stack. A few days ago Grafana stopped working, with the web panel reporting “an internal server error”:
{ “message”: “An error occurred within the plugin”, “messageId”: “plugin.downstreamError”, “statusCode”: 500, “traceID”: “” }
Has anyone encountered (and solved? :)) this issue? Kind regards

This error indicates that something has gone wrong internally with Grafana, typically due to a plugin issue or a configuration problem.
Use the following command to view the logs of the Grafana pod:
Replace
<grafana-pod-name>with the actual name of your Grafana pod. Check for any error messages or stack traces that could give more insight into what’s causing the issue.Look for any plugins that might be known to cause issues or have recent updates that could have introduced bugs.
If any plugins are outdated or known to cause problems, consider updating or removing them:
Or remove a specific plugin:
After updating or removing plugins, restart the Grafana pod to apply changes:
Kubernetes will automatically recreate the pod with the updated configuration.
