[prometheus-users] Re: snmp_exporter service fails
This isn't really a question about prometheus any more, it's a question about system administration in general. You've unfortunately overwritten one file (the snmp_exporter executable) with another file (a text YAML file). There are snmp_exporter binaries for various architectures available from the project releases page: https://github.com/prometheus/snmp_exporter/releases If you need help you with the downloading, unpacking, moving files into the right place and so on, then you should probably talk to a local system administrator who can work with you directly on this. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prometheus Users" group.

[prometheus-users] Re: snmp_exporter service fails
Hi Brian,
Can you please help me sort this out.
How to change the binary file to its original form?

Show what error it returns. It will almost certainly tell you that the

snmp_exporter binary.

It looks like you're replaced the snmp_exporter binary with the yaml file.
Try:
less /usr/local/bin/snmp_exporter
to look at the contents.
Possibly you meant to put the generated file into snmp_exporter.yml, but
you replaced the snmp_exporter binary by mistake?

how you built the binary.
I expect you'll get the same error running the binary directly at the
command line: try
/usr/local/bin/snmp_exporter
and see if that gives a better error message. Also see if "ldd
/usr/local/bin/snmp_exporter" gives you any clues.
This is the sort of error you'd get if you built the binary to run on
Linux but you're trying to run it on a Mac, for example.

This is nothing to do with systemd. Type the following command at the shell prompt: /usr/local/bin/snmp_exporter Show what error it returns. It will almost certainly tell you that the binary is bad. If so, you either need to download or build a fresh snmp_exporter binary.

Hey, Thanks for your response.

[prometheus-users] Re: snmp_exporter service fails
"Exec format error" = the binary is invalid = there was a problem with how you built the binary. I expect you'll get the same error running the binary directly at the command line: try /usr/local/bin/snmp_exporter and see if that gives a better error message. Also see if "ldd /usr/local/bin/snmp_exporter" gives you any clues. This is the sort of error you'd get if you built the binary to run on Linux but you're trying to run it on a Mac, for example.
