Most of the metrics are to 0.0

[damien-reyre]

Hello,

Thanks for adding the memgraph-exporter. It can be very useful.

I just noticed, that practically all my metrics are zero except for a few.

memgraph is installed in docker-compose. 1.7-memgraph-2.8-dev

I passed the two commands for adding the metrics:
--metrics-address
--metrics-port

For the moment, I just use the python script.

The metrics available:

The metrics are zero:

Until the end, all metrics are zero.

Did I forget something for having all the metrics?

Thanks

All the metrics from memgraph itself are not available. The first metrics available are from the host (I suppose).

I connected to the container in bash and I tried to curl localhost:9091

That the reason I can't see the metrics, but why?

If I don't add the settings for the containers --metrics-address and --metrics-port. I get a connection refused.

Hello @damien-reyre , there are a couple of things which might be wrong with the setup. The workflow of enabling exposed metrics to the outside is as follows:

1. Add the enterprise license to memgraph (this is done at runtime)
2. Restart Memgraph
3. try to curl via postman

The documentation at https://memgraph.com/docs/memgraph/reference-guide/exposing-system-metrics provides you with the steps of how to enable exposing metrics.

After doing these steps, I was successfully getting the JSON response of the metrics from Postman.

@damien-reyre An additional question, which metrics do you not expect to be zero, but were zero when you got the metrics response?

Hello @Josipmrden,

My mistake was about the enterprise license. I didn't set up. Thanks.

Hello @Josipmrden,

I got an enterprise license.

I configured the memgraph with docker compose:

In the second step, you said:

curl http://172.18.0.1:9091
curl: (7) Failed to connect to 172.18.0.1 port 9091: Connection refused

curl http://172.18.0.1:9091/metrics
curl: (7) Failed to connect to 172.18.0.1 port 9091: Connection refused

There is no firewall in this dev environment.

Nothing in the logs from memgraph.

I think I missed something to configure.

[damien-reyre]

Do you have any idea? @Josipmrden

[Josipmrden]

hello @damien-reyre , have you restarted Memgraph after configuring the enterprise licence?

[damien-reyre]

@Josipmrden Yes. It seems I can't get the metrics from the memgraph container.

[damien-reyre]

Finally, the parameters in commands seems not working in my case from docker-compose.yaml.

So I passed the memgraph.conf in volume and set --metrics-address=0.0.0.0 and --metrics-port=9091.

This time with curl, the port is well open, but I have nothing, no metrics, no JSON.

When I'm looking to the logs:

That's possible to get this symptom with an invalid license or my organization's name is wrong?
