Description

When Iam starting InfluxDB (v 1.8.0) in a docker-compose szenario the influx logs the following messgages:
```
influxdb init process in progress…
influxdb init process in progress…
influxdb init process in progress…
influxdb init process in progress…
influxdb init process in progress…
influxdb init process in progress…
influxdb init process in progress…
influxdb init process in progress…

influxdb init process in progress…
influxdb init process in progress…
influxdb init process failed.
```

Why does the progress fails?
I noticed that the more services I add to the compose file the longer does the init progress needs. When only ading a few services it works.
After 30 “tries”, the init progress failes. I only added the env var INFLUX_DB variable to instantiate a database on startup.

Research direction

Reproduce the failure with InfluxDB 1.8.0 in the reported docker-compose setup, including the INFLUX_DB environment variable, and observe how added services affect initialization. The payload names no source files or tests; done means identifying why initialization exceeds 30 tries and documenting or fixing the failure.
