Do you have any idea why this might happen?

Grafana 6.X is quite old at this point (more than 3 years), and I know somewhere in there Grafana re-wrote their plugin framework, so its entirely possible that the newer plugin framework isn't compatible with older versions. The integration tests are run against the latest stable version line (9.X), but I will see if I can get it running against older versions as well.

After having done some digging, I regret to inform you that this plugin is, in fact, incompatible with Grafana 6. In Grafana 7, the version of React.js was upgraded from the legacy version that used plain JavaScript to the modern version that uses TypeScript. Further, the plugin uses UI components that were added in Grafana 9. If you wish to use this plugin, you will need to upgrade your Grafana installation.

I really appreciate it! I will try to upgrade Grafana.
