Hi @haroon-sheikh , it seems the version of gauge-java is 0.8.0 in the log you attached. Is this as what you intended?

[haroon-sheikh]

Good spot @i-whammy. That was just me testing with different versions, the same issue persists with 0.8.1

@sriv have you had a chance to look at this? is there anything I can do to help please?

[haroon-sheikh]

Related to https://github.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/8751 since the grpc bump e1fbe2a3fd88eeef550b647794acdae512cdd556

The workaround is to add the following to alpine/Dockerfille:

RUN apk add gcompat

ENV LD_PRELOAD=/lib/libgcompat.so.0

[haroon-sheikh]

@zabil @sriv Do you think we can downgrade the grpc version to < 1.42.x? The workaround above works for gauge but break anything else running within the image?

[zabil]

Thanks for investigating @haroon-sheikh please feel free to send a pull request for the downgrade and let's take a call.
