Version 0.25.0 Ignores listen-address in config.yml
davideverall opened this issue · comments
After upgrading to v0.25.0 windows_exporter ignores listen-address in config.yml
config example:
web:
listen-address: ":25460"
- Windows 10 pro 22H2
- Installer: windows_exporter-0.25.0-amd64.msi
Event log message:
ts=2024-01-16T09:34:33.890Z caller=tls_config.go:313 level=info msg="Listening on" address=[::]:9182
- cmd flag does work e.g.
.\windows_exporter.exe --web.listen-address=":25460" - msi flag also works e.g.
msiexec /i <path-to-msi-file> LISTEN_PORT=25460
I have tried with single quotes, double quotes, no quotes with same result.
Looks like the msi installer is adding in --web.listen-address 0.0.0.0:9182 to the windows service.
"C:\Program Files\windows_exporter\windows_exporter.exe" --log.file eventlog --web.listen-address 0.0.0.0:9182 --config.file=C:\location\config.yml
You can delete it from HKLM:System\CurrentControlSet\Services\windows_exporter\imagepath and it should work on your custom port then after a restart of the windows service as a temporary fix
