The exporter does not get any metrics

Hello,

I installed the exporter using the binary into /srv/ directory and I am using Keepalived v2.0.19 (10/19,2019) on Ubuntu Focal.

When I execute the exporter using a dedicated user, the exporter can't get any metrics :

# service keepalived-exporter status
systemd[1]: Started Keepalived Exporter Server.
keepalived-exporter[102339]: time="2021-02-17T08:40:18+01:00" level=info msg="Listening on address: :9165"
keepalived-exporter[102339]: time="2021-02-17T08:40:35+01:00" level=error msg="Failed to send signal" error="operation not permitted" pid=74793
keepalived-exporter[102339]: time="2021-02-17T08:40:35+01:00" level=error msg="Failed to send STATS signal to keepalived" error="operation not permitted"
keepalived-exporter[102339]: time="2021-02-17T08:40:35+01:00" level=error msg="No data found to be exported" error="operation not permitted" json=false

When I execute the exporter as root, I get the following error :

/srv/keepalived-exporter-1.0.0.linux-amd64# ./keepalived-exporter
INFO[0000] Listening on address: :9165
panic: runtime error: index out of range [2] with length 1

Do you have any idea of how I can fix this?

Thanks. Kind regards, Christian
