influxdb: Following Docs to Create and Setup InfluxDB 2.0 on MacOS leads to server internal error

Following this guide:

https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v2.0/get-started/

I

1. Installed with homebrew
2. ran influxd in a terminal
3. Navigated to localhost:8086

This resulted in a 500 Internal Server Error

I see nothing in the logging in the terminal that would indicate whats wrong, and searching the usual places for logs yielded no influx log file.

The contents of the term are:

Environment info:

Env:

Darwin 20.3.0 x86_64

version: InfluxDB 2.0.4 (git: none) build_date: 2021-04-03T16:40:31Z

Config:

All default. I literally ran brew install influxdb and then influxd

Logs:

I was unable to find the log file, and searching the web documentation did not yield its location. Perhaps put the path in the template?

I should also mention that configuring the system with influx setup worked, but I still cannot log into the UI, I am greeted only with the 500 internal server error. This prevents me from accessing the auth token that was created at setup
