Description:
Per this Slack thread, the builder was recently updated not to include any components by default.
This PR updates the README's TL;DR example to explicitly include the required core collector modules (OTLP receiver, batch processor, and logging exporter). Without them, the collector you build following those instructions fails to run.
Link to tracking issue:
n/a (I just went ahead and opened this PR)
Testing:
To reproduce the failure:
~/.otelcol-builder.yaml
that only includesalibabacloudlogserviceexporter
and no other modules/tmp/otelcol.yaml
in the instructionsunknown receivers type "otlp" for "otlp"
After rebuilding the collector with the updated
~/.otelcol-builder.yaml
listing all the required modules, it will run successfully.
