cassandra exporter (0.9.12) still do not export metrics of cassandra 4.0.5

[mindaugaszilionis]

Hi, tried replace 0.9.10 cassandra exporter agent with nwly released 0.9.12 exporter version. Dont see any difference - metrics still "loading" for ages and do not open - just like in previous version of exporter.

Hi, thanks for the report.

Are you running the agent or standalone version?

When you say "loading", where exactly are you seeing that, prometheus?

Are you able to query the metrics api directly on the node and get any results? E.g: http://localhost:9500/metrics

Cheers

Hi, i use agent version and add it into classpath by JVM_OPTS="$JVM_OPTS -javaagent:$CASSANDRA_HOME/lib/cassandra-exporter-agent-0.9.12.jar"

when i try to load metrics, it is taking ages and do not respond (after some minutes i just cancel)

@mindaugaszilionis\@johndelcastillo Were you able to find a solution for this? I am facing the same issue currently in my environment.

[itskarlsson]

The problem here is that versions are not working with 4.0.x. You get a stacktrace in the system.log and the metrics will load forever. I created a quick patch to make it work in #114.

actually same problem with casandra 4.1.3 in casssandra system logs there is error: WARN [prometheus-netty-pool-0] 2023-10-06 14:51:27,373 DefaultChannelPipeline.java:1152 - An exceptionCaught() event was fired, and it reached at the tail of the pipeline.

The release from edgelaborities has fixed the issue for me. (AFAIK because they just merged https://github.com/instaclustr/cassandra-exporter/pull/84) See also https://github.com/instaclustr/cassandra-exporter/issues/83.
