Weird opentelemetry-collector errors

[ghevge]

I'm trying to set up opentelemetry-collector with prometheus, tempo and loki on a dockerize jave springboot 3 application.

I've managed to start all the containers, but once I generet some activity on my app, otel collector start to generate errors like bellow:

otel-collector_1  | 2023-08-30T15:24:45.452Z    error   [email protected]/log.go:23    error gathering metrics: 5 error(s) occurred:

Any idea what could be causing this?

My docker-compose looks something like this:

........
