I am trying to setup OpenTelemetry Collector for Kubernetes in Splunk Cloud.

For this I followed the following article

Splunk OpenTelemetry Collector for Kubernetes

I am using google Kubernetes engine. As mentioned in article I tried below two helm to install Splunk OpenTelemetry Collector in a Kubernetes cluster. None of these worked and I keep getting error message.

helm install my-splunk-otel-collector --set="splunkPlatform.endpoint=https://http-inputs-prd-p-19lmt.splunkcloud.com:8088/services/collector/event,splunkPlatform.token=XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX,splunkPlatform.index=main,clusterName=spluk-kub" splunk-otel-collector-chart/splunk-otel-collector

helm install my-splunk-otel-collector --set="splunkPlatform.endpoint=https://prd-p-19lmt.splunkcloud.com:8088/services/collector/event,splunkPlatform.token=XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX,splunkPlatform.index=main,clusterName=spluk-kub" splunk-otel-collector-chart/splunk-otel-collector

Here is how the error log loooks like
