Hello Team, I am also facing the same issue, I am trying to forward syslog form the same machine where SigNoz is installed, I need your help to fix this issue: Installed OS: Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS Logs: Feb 28 072516 connect.softhealer.com otelcol-contrib[458524]: Error: cannot start pipelines: listen tcp 192.168.1.34317 bind: address already in use Feb 28 072516 connect.softhealer.com otelcol-contrib[458524]: 2024/02/28 072516 collector server run finished with error: cannot start pipelines: listen tcp 192.168.1.34317 bind: address already in use Feb 28 072516 connect.softhealer.com systemd[1]: otelcol-contrib.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE Feb 28 072516 connect.softhealer.com systemd[1]: otelcol-contrib.service: Killing process 458535 (dbus-daemon) with signal SIGKILL.
