Do you see any error in signoz collector logs?
n
could not find any erros
s
Can you help us understand better how did you instrument and configure your applications to send data to SigNoz?
n
we have enabled a sample pod now for testing the data
using the above DOC we have created a sample pod to send data to signoz the logs of the pod i can find is
s
Are you sure you configured the collector to export to SigNoz other than logging?
👀 1
n
we are using otel collector to export the metrics as well
s
No, my question was, does the sidecar collector export the data to SigNoz? It must have a
otlp
exporter that sends data to SigNoz?
By
logging
, I meant the collector has a
logging
exporter which write the traces, metrics, logs to stdout for debugging purpose.
You must configure the
otlp
exporter to send data to SigNoz
n
Copy code
in the sidecar config we have used otlp exporter enabled

service:
      pipelines:
        traces:
          receivers: [otlp]
          processors: [batch]
          exporters: [logging, otlp]
        metrics:
          receivers: [otlp]
          processors: [batch]
          exporters: [logging, otlp]

What is the endpoint of the
otlp
exporter and share the logs of sidecar collector.

Did you generate any traffic to pet clinic application to produce any telemetry?
n
yes generated traffic manually by giving curl req to api
s
Can you confirm if the auto-instrumentation step for petclinic step is also done?
n
yes we followed that approach previously latter on we moved to side car approach
if available can we connect in a call?
s
The auto instrumentation is separate from the collector deployment.
Send me huddle
