we have enabled signoz in our env and we want to export logs, metrics and traces of out kubernetes deployment application to signoz context: we have used signoz side car approach and also tested the troubleshotting guide the setup of signoz is done correctly as per below ss by using troubleshooting guide the log is showing that it has sent data successfully to signoz, but in the signoz dashboard we are not able to see any of the services. attached 3rd SS for the same need urgent help for this as we require to enable signoz in multiple prod account by next week. cc: @Sanket Jaiswal

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?
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]
s
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
