Can't see existing data in Elasticsearch through Zipkin. #38

Closed Rietty closed 3 years ago

Rietty commented 3 years ago

So I have ES set up (AWS using the AWS-ES module from openzipkin) and I am running into an issue where regardless of what ES_INDEX I set up, it does not show me existing traces that are already in my ES storage that I would like to look up. Only new traces from start-up onwards are able to be seen from Zipkin UI, instead of everything which is what is desired.

anything to share on this? maybe someone else would hit a similar glitch

@adriancole I'm actually not 100% sure if it's intended design or not. So I'm going to be running a test on it the next week. I did figure out one of the issues was that the index name wasn't technically matching up with what we had, since it appends the word -span to the index.
