Elastic Observability - Lab 3.1: Elastic APM

in Kibana, clicking Observability > APM > Services I don't get any service, the screen shows a "Add data" button while in the lab course test case I read "you will probably see petclinic-address-finder" ... but there is no petclinic-address-finder...

can you help?

Hello @fabio.iovine

Mostly you have not followed the steps as per the Labs. Because we configure the APM service & restart the docker services post which these are visible under APM. Could you please review the lab documentation again.

Thanks!!

Hi there,
I did review all the steps in the documentation two times, I'm fine with the "docker ps" command - I see everything I'm supposed to see
I open kibana - user: training - and set the "secret token" as written in the lab pages, save it - successfully

after that Observability > APM > Services shows this:

It may help you that I moved to Lab 3.2 so I stopped docker, modified /root/start-scripts/50-petclinic-server.sh as written in the lab course pages, and after "docker restart petclinic-server"... Observability > APM > Services is exactly as I left it...

Now, I'm quite sure I did something wrong somewhere but it is also sure that I did everything that is in the lab test cases...

Hello Fabio,
In Lab 3.1, once you update APM integration with the secret_token, it might take couple of minutes to see the address_finder service in the Service Inventory.
Is it appearing now ?
Thank you

Hallo Vince, no, sorry.

I moved to Lab 3.2 and 3.3, I changed config and props files for java agent and node.js agent and exit/restart a couple of times petclinic docker (docker restart petclinic-client) after I've checked the files were exactly as described in the course lab pages but nothing changed on kibana side...
