ubuntu 22.04 otel-collector can't read /var/log

[arolypoly]

test read permissions for syslog:
sudo -u openobserve-agent test -r /var/log/syslog; echo $?

shove this into install.sh somewhere:
setfacl -R -m u:openobserve-agent:rx /var/log/

shove this into uninstall.sh somewhere:
setfacl -R -x u:openobserve-agent /var/log/

double check:
getfacl /var/log

He want to add those parameter to set the add the otel agent user in the default permission on the /var/log/*

[hengfeiyang]

Ha, @Manazsharma Can you help on this case?

[vladaman]

Got the same issue. Solution is to add a user to adm group:

sudo usermod -aG adm 'openobserve-agent'
sudo systemctl restart otel-collector
