Container orchestrator Killing orchestrator because of an Exception "baseUrl is invalid"
k
It looks like you're encountering an issue with the container orchestrator in Airbyte where it is being killed due to an invalid
baseUrl
. This issue can occur if the endpoint for the OpenTelemetry (OTEL) collector is not correctly configured. From the provided knowledge sources, here is a relevant log snippet that indicates a similar problem:

Log4j2Appender says: Using default value for environment variable OTEL_COLLECTOR_ENDPOINT: '' 2023-02-06 07:06:04 replication-orchestrator > Using default value for environment variable OTEL_COLLECTOR_ENDPOINT: '' Log4j2Appender says: Killing orchestrator because of an Exception 2023-02-06 07:06:05 ERROR i.a.c.Application(run):81 - Killing orchestrator because of an Exception java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Invalid endpoint, must start with http:// or https://: at io.opentelemetry.exporter.internal.ExporterBuilderUtil.validateEndpoint(ExporterBuilderUtil.java:30) ~[opentelemetry-exporter-common-1.18.0.jar:1.18.0] at io.opentelemetry.exporter.internal.grpc.GrpcExporterBuilder.setEndpoint(GrpcExporterBuilder.java:96) ~[opentelemetry-exporter-common-1.18.0.jar:1.18.0] at io.opentelemetry.exporter.otlp.trace.OtlpGrpcSpanExporterBuilder.setEndpoint(OtlpGrpcSpanExporterBuilder.java:88) ~[opentelemetry-exporter-otlp-1.18.0.jar:1.18.0] at io.airbyte.metrics.lib.OpenTelemetryMetricClient.initialize(OpenTelemetryMetricClient.java:73) ~[io.airbyte.airbyte-metrics-metrics-lib-0.40.30.jar:?] at io.airbyte.metrics.lib.MetricClientFactory.initializeOpenTelemetryMetricClient(MetricClientFactory.java:135) ~[io.airbyte.airbyte-metrics-metrics-lib-0.40.30.jar:?]
### Steps to Resolve 1. Check the OTEL Collector Endpoint: Ensure that the
OTEL_COLLECTOR_ENDPOINT
environment variable is set correctly. It must start with
http://
or
https://
. 2. Update Configuration: If the endpoint is not set or is incorrect, update your configuration to include a valid endpoint. For example:
Copy code
yaml    env:      - name: OTEL_COLLECTOR_ENDPOINT        value: "<http://your-otel-collector-endpoint>"
3. Restart the Orchestrator: After updating the configuration, restart the orchestrator to apply the changes. ### Example Configuration Here is an example of how you might configure the environment variable in a Kubernetes deployment:
Copy code
yaml apiVersion: apps/v1 kind: Deployment metadata:   name: airbyte-orchestrator spec:   template:     spec:       containers:         - name: orchestrator           env:             - name: OTEL_COLLECTOR_ENDPOINT               value: "<http://your-otel-collector-endpoint>"
By ensuring that the
OTEL_COLLECTOR_ENDPOINT
is correctly set, you should be able to avoid the
Invalid endpoint
exception and prevent the orchestrator from being killed. For more detailed information, you can refer to the original issue [here](https://github.com/airbytehq/airbyte/issues/22401).

@kapa.ai It seems to be connected to the new
airbyteUrl
config value in the Helm chart
k
It looks like you're referring to the configuration of the
airbyteUrl
in the Helm chart for Airbyte. Based on the provided knowledge sources, there have been several discussions and issues related to configuring URLs and environment variables in the Helm charts for Airbyte. ### Configuring
airbyteUrl
in the Helm Chart To configure the
airbyteUrl
in the Helm chart, you need to set the appropriate values in your
values.yaml
file. This is typically done to ensure that the web application and other components use the correct URL, especially when dealing with external access or notifications. #### Example Configuration Here is an example of how you might set the
airbyteUrl
in your
values.yaml
file:
Copy code
yaml webapp:   url: "<http://your-airbyte-url.com>"   extraEnv:     - name: WEBAPP_URL       valueFrom:         configMapKeyRef:           name: airbyte-env           key: WEBAPP_URL
This configuration sets the
webapp.url
and ensures that the
WEBAPP_URL
environment variable is correctly referenced from the config map. ### Relevant Issues and Fixes 1. Issue with
WEBAPP_URL
Not Overriding Webhooks Notifications
: - There was an issue where setting the
WEBAPP_URL
did not override the default URL in webhook notifications. This was discussed and confirmed in [GitHub Issue #33942](https://github.com/airbytehq/airbyte/issues/33942). - The solution involved setting the
webapp.url
and explicitly setting the
WEBAPP_URL
environment variable in the webapp pod. 2. Ability to Update the
WEBAPP_URL
Env in the Airbyte Helm Chart
: - This issue was addressed and fixed in a pull request, making it possible to update the
WEBAPP_URL
environment variable in the Helm chart. The fix is available in the newer versions of the Helm chart as mentioned in [GitHub Issue #23269](https://github.com/airbytehq/airbyte/issues/23269). ### Upgrading the Helm Chart To apply these changes, ensure you are using the correct version of the Helm chart. You can upgrade your Helm chart by running:
Copy code
shell helm upgrade --install %RELEASE_NAME% airbyte/airbyte -n <NAMESPACE> --values /path/to/values.yaml --version 0.50.13
This command will upgrade your Airbyte deployment to the specified version, applying the configurations from your
values.yaml
file. ### Conclusion By setting the
webapp.url
and ensuring the
WEBAPP_URL
environment variable is correctly configured, you can control the URL used by the Airbyte web application and notifications. Make sure to use the latest Helm chart version that includes these fixes.
