Documentation issue: Building a receiver (tutorial)

[hyang023]

After following the instructions up to Running and debugging the receiver
I get unexpected output

I am experiencing the same issue.

I'm experiencing this issue too

[svrnm]

thanks @zdelagrange @mihaisevencode

@open-telemetry/collector-approvers please take a look, how can we fix this issue?

[zdelagrange]

So this is definitely something to do with local development environment, i'm able to run the ocb in a docker container. i'm not exactly sure how his happens, because i've deleted and re-installed the golang installation many times. Is it possible this is only affecting MacOS Arm?

I am unable to reproduce on a linux/amd64 machine, commented on open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector/issues/10476

@zdelagrange @mx-psi I observed this in a Ubuntu 20.04 environment and have not tried on MacOS Arm

In a dockerized or on a VM/physical machine? If in a dockerized environment, can you share your setup details, so someone can try to reproduce, if on a local machine, can you share some more characteristics that might help here (architecture, go version, etc.)
