alloy-infra-nrg9d alloy ts=2024-08-12T07:09:20.593144112Z level=error msg="starting up component failed, will retry" component_path=/ component_id=mimir.rules.kubernetes.default err="error GET /prometheus/config/v1/rules: unrecoverable error response: server returned HTTP status 401 Unauthorized: no org id"

With a minimal configuration like this

mimir.rules.kubernetes "default" {
    address = "http://mimir-ruler:8080"
}

I get the error message as can be seen above. When port-forwarding to mimir-nginx and accessing the same path "/prometheus/config/v1/rules" in the browser, everything works fine. Mimir seems to have multitenancy enabled by default however I plan to not use it. Please extend the docs on how to configure this properly.

When using the mimir-distributed helm chart, it seems to work when pointing the mimir.rules.kubernetes component to the mimir-nginx service instead :)

if you add the tenant_id it works

mimir.rules.kubernetes "local" {
    address = "http://mimir-ruler:8080"
    tenant_id = "anonymous"
}

@clayton-cornell @tacole02 I see both alloy and metrics mentioned in this one. Which of you would be best to take on the assignment? Thanks!

At first glance, it appears more alloy-related. @clayton-cornell what do you think?

[clayton-cornell]

Yes, this is Alloy docs. I'll get it into the queue.
