Monitoring website response with OpenTelemetry Collector- How to resolve error?

Hi,

I am monitoring HTTP response code for a bunch of internal url's and it works as long as the sites are responding. But if the host is not responding I get nothing but an error in the Windows application eventlog:

Get \"http://osi3160.de-prod.dk:8080/ping\": net/http: request canceled while waiting for connection (Client.Timeout exceeded while awaiting headers)", "monitorType": "http", "url": "http://osi3160.de-prod.dk:8080/ping"}

Get \"http://osi3160.de-prod.dk:8080/ping\": context deadline exceeded"}

 

My agent_config.yaml looks like this:

smartagent/http_api-gateway_1:
type: http
host: osi3160.de-prod.dk
port: 8080
path: /ping
regex: <body>OK<\/body>
httpTimeout: 20s
intervalSeconds: 60

Any ideas?
