adapter not collecting prometheus metrics

[KennethNagin]

I've installed the prometheus-kafka-adapter using your helm chart. However I am having no success getting it to work. When print out its log get lots of messages like:

{"fields.time":"2020-06-30T11:41:41Z","ip":"10.45.216.154","latency":1407190,"level":"info","method":"GET","msg":"","path":"/metrics","status":200,"time":"2020-06-30T11:41:41Z","user-agent":"kube-probe/1.16"}

However there is nothing related to the prometheus metrics. When I use portforwarding to browse to its home page I get a "404 page not found". I also do not see anything in the kafka topic metrics.

These are the relate kubectl get svc entries

kafka                           ClusterIP      172.21.234.145   <none>          9092/TCP 
prometheus-kafka-adapter        ClusterIP      172.21.242.209   <none>          8080/TCP 

The prometheus values setting:

server:
  remotewrite: http:\\prometheus-kafka-adapter:8080\receive

Any suggests?

@KennethNagin any logs in prometheus? Is the remotewrite URL ok? It is using the wrong bars ("\" instead of "/"). Also, make sure you are using remote_write instead of remotewrite in your prometheus configuration.

I'm closing this issue. It looks like a problem in prometheus' config. @KennethNagin please reopen if needed.

For the record. This is the form that works for stable/prometheus values.yaml server: remoteWrite:

• url: http://prometheus-kafka-adapter:8080/receive
