What did you expect to see?
I expect some errors are reported.

What did you see instead? Under which circumstances?
I do not see any errors at logs.

Environment

  • System information: Docker compose
  • postgres_exporter version: 0.12.0
  • postgres_exporter flags:
"--config.file", "/etc/postgres-exporter.yml",
"--log.level", "debug",
"--disable-default-metrics",

When I did the query:
http://host:9187/probe?target=tsdb:5432&auth_module=tsdd

auth_module tsdd not found

This is expected, because tsdd was not configured.

http://host:9187/probe?target=xxtsdb:5432&auth_module=tsdb
I see this output:

# TYPE pg_scrape_collector_duration_seconds gauge

probe_success 0

I expect here some error instead of prometheus metrics. Or, at least, some errors at log file.
There should be error that xxtsdb:5432 does not exists/not configured/no connection.

Still probe_success 0 and no any reports about errors at log file =(
