Description
Thank you for this project
I have influxdb running in a container on a synology nas.
I would like to backup its data.
But if I run the influx- command inside the container, I get a response
`Error: read /etc/influxdb2: is a directory`
Which is true. Inside /etc/influxdb2 there is a file config.json.
Even running 'influx server-config' gives the same error.
What am I missing?
Thank you.

Research direction
Reproduce the error inside the container with the `influx` command and `influx server-config`, then inspect how `/etc/influxdb2` and its `config.json` are handled. Clarify the intended configuration path and backup-related behavior before changing anything; done should include a command that no longer fails because the directory is read as a file.
