<@U03C3Q7V84V> Can you share what steps are you using to instrument your nodejs application?

<@U02SS3ZAMKQ> Do you have any idea on possible causes for this?

<@U03C3Q7V84V> it seems like unrelated to OpenTelemetry instrumentation but redis.
Anyways, it looks like `port` is set as `string` , it is required to be of type `number`

For example:
```const redisClientConfig: redis.ClientOpts = {
    host: '127.0.0.1',
    port: 6379
};```

this only happens once I install the following dependencies as stated in the website under instrumenting applications

• `@opentelemetry/api`
• `@opentelemetry/auto-instrumentations-node`
• `@opentelemetry/exporter-otlp-grpc`
• `@opentelemetry/sdk-node`


<@U01HPVB0D2S> I install the following dependecies
• `@opentelemetry/api`
• `@opentelemetry/auto-instrumentations-node`
• `@opentelemetry/exporter-otlp-grpc`
• `@opentelemetry/sdk-node`
then I created a tracing.js page and added the instrumentation code

N/B I am trying to dockerize the application also
