InfluxDB has recently encountered several unexpected issues that require attention from users, including authentication failures with the Command Line Interface (CLI), data truncation in graphs when using Chronograf, and changes in query behavior. A recommended solution for authentication failures is to single-quote passwords if they contain special characters, as some shells may attempt to inject variables into the password. The default configuration option `max-row-limit` in OSS version 1.2.1 sets a limit of 10,000 rows returned per query, but setting it to 0 allows for unlimited rows and is recommended. Additionally, there has been a change in query behavior that returns fewer points than expected, with a workaround available using InfluxQL's subqueries until the issue is fixed in version 1.3.0.
