Modify path to /usr/local/bin
So the OTEL collector works fine in x64 architecture right? |
This issue is not yet fixed by OTEL. But there is a workaround: open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector-contrib#31910 (comment) |
No additional instrumentation changes are required for the OTEL collector. It receives (supports prometheus metrics format) metrics from Prometheus and exports them to the desired remote backend. I also tested OTEL collector with Grafana cloud.
