Hello,
I am having Context propagation issues when switching between Cats Effect IO and Scala Futures with the newer version (2.2.0). I don't see issues with Cats Effect IO + Default Scala global execution context.

When using Akka Dispatchers I seem to be losing context. Sharing minimal example https://gist.github.com/ndchandar/0c54f348a72308d3abb1741f311c650c
Appreciate your help on this.

Hello everyone. I'm experimenting with Kamon 2.0, akka-http/akka and integration with Prometheus. I am not sure why I am getting this error "expected equal, got "INVALID" and showing end point is down Standalone Prometheus instance scraping metrics endpoint shows tartget as down due to this error: expected equal, got "INVALID"

Hi, I'm trying out Kamon traces in combination with the W3C context propagation. In my very basic example (create a span, propagate it via W3C context an recreate it, create child span from it) I'm loosing the association to the parent span because when the W3C context is written, the id of the parent span is used instead of the id of the current span itself (see https://github.com/kamon-io/Kamon/blob/master/core/kamon-core/src/main/scala/kamon/trace/SpanPropagation.scala#L110). Is this correct and I misunderstand the concept here?

Hi, good morning. I try to use kamon-datadog in 1 of our services in k8s. I configured it to use module agent and tracer pointing to our datadog agent running on all nodes. I see in the log that Kamon Datadog modules are started however nothing is really sent to the target. I tried to add a fake endpoint only for logging to see what is sent to the target but no data is sent at all. Can you help me to understand what might be the problem. No error, no logs even in TRACE level. Thank you

Hi, I recently started using kamon-prometheus and noticed that a counter metric always yielded 0 when querying it via the increase or rate function of PromQL. The reason for this was that the corresponding Kamon counter has been initialised just right before incrementing it. Therefore, no initial counter value of 0 has been exported. So I did some research and stumbled across this part of the Prometheus documentation: https://prometheus.io/docs/practices/instrumentation/#avoid-missing-metrics
It recommends to initialise all metrics before using them. I'd like to do this but it seems very tedious/unrealistic to do it manually by calling every metric with every possible label combination at the start of my application. So, I wonder, is there some utility or configuration for kamon-prometheus that initializes all the metrics (or rather series) automatically so that initial values are exported?

Thx in advance!

Anybody here have experience using the Datadog Java agent? Seems like we're being forced to switch to it from Kamon because Kamon's metrics count as custom (paid/limited) but Datadog's metrics count as built-in (free) for the same data (e.g. JVM GC count).

Hi, I am new to Kamon, and I am trying to create nested scopes and/or spans - I need to timestmap and trace the executions of rather complicated requests, which are dispatched thorugh the chain of actors. In particular, I'd like to create nested scope befroe ending message to actor, and close scope after message is processed. Or, I would like to create nested scope when running spawining child operation (which can spawn nested scopes as well). I ma not very clear waht is the proper way to do that.
All exmaples in Kamon documentation imply that span finishes in the same block where it started, and there is very little information about Scope. My understanding, while I can get currentContext and currentSpan, there is no way to get current scope, so I'd have to sotre it in e.g dynamicVariable to close it when I need it.
Can you suggest waht is the proepr way to create nested spans and nested scopes and properly finish/close them - sometiems in different module that the one it started ?
Another question - if I need to obtain e.g request id for request which took longest time - how do I store this request id, via mark ? And how to see this mark in e.g. Datadog ?

High all, have a question about cadinality for Kamon tags. Docs say, avoid high cadinality for "metric-related tags". Does "metric-related tag" here means span#tagMetrics - as opposed to Span#tag ? If yes, can I store high cadinality values in Span#tag without generating time series for each value combination ?

Hey, has anyone experienced missing traces when using scala ZIO? I am using Kamon 2.1.4 with OpenTelemetry, and the app is a bit weird, but I basically have a Akka HTTP API, that runs a ZIO, which in turn calls an Akka HTTP Client (I know this is a weird setup). I see the main trace, and spans for things which happens before the ZIO is run but I do not see the traces for the Client call that happened in the ZIO, and it appears the service that was called did not get the trace ID either. I will keep digging, but if anyone has seen something like that or has an idea what it could be I am all ears.

  }

  "io.kamon" %% "kamon-prometheus" % "2.2.2" exclude("org.slf4j", "slf4j-api"),
  "io.kamon" %% "kamon-core" % "2.1.0" exclude("org.slf4j", "slf4j-api")

I already have JMX Exporter which expose Kafka metrics to 9404, i tried to make Kamon use this port also, when i remove the application.conf and use the default value of port 9095 i cannot port-forward to this port for some reason.

I'm missing something?

Hi. We are experiencing the following WARN message:

Failed to record value [-401488] on [span.processing-time,{operation=serialize,error=false}] because the value is outside of the configured range. The recorded value was adjusted to the highest trackable value [3600000000000]. You might need to change your dynamic range configuration for this metric

So the recorded value is negative. What we use is the Kamon SpanBuilder.start(Instant), however the span is later (within sub-milliseconds) finished via Span.finish() (where the underlying Clock is used to determine the nanos of the finish time)
Could it be that this "mixing" can cause negative values being recorded?

Thomas Jaeckle

@thjaeckle

ah, maybe instead of Instant.now() we should use Kamon.clock().instant() which provides better precision/performance?
