Runner can't connect to external prometheus and alertmanager

[smoug25]

Describe the bug I have multicluster setup with separate monitoring cluster. For metrics querying i use Thanos Query and it works fine in-cluster robusta runner can connect through thanos query service and alertmanager throurn alertmanager service. I expose hosts for Thanos Query and Alertmanager with JWT auth through Ambassador Edge Stack. I able to request thanos and alert manager from my machine successfully but robusta runner return errors for thanos query 401 code for Alertmanager 400 code.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Setup two clusters cluster A and cluster B
2. Expose prometheus and alert manager on cluster A with JWT authorization
3. Install robusta to clusters and add to robusta on cluster B url to prometheus and aletmanager in cluster A
4. See error in rubusta on cluster B

Expected behavior No errors in robusta logs on external cluster and available app metrics in robusta UI

Hi @smoug25, I don't think we currently support JWT authorization in prometheus but we do support adding a custom prometheus authorization headers in robusta.

https://docs.robusta.dev/master/configuration/alertmanager-integration/outofcluster-prometheus.html#authentication-headers

Does something like this help?

Hi @smoug25 Can you try running this with your url and token to see what thanos responds?

curl --location 'https://MY-PROMETHEUS.URL/api/v1/query?query=up' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer JWT_TOKEN'

Some users have had issues with thanos because they needed to either specify port or make the url http instead of https, so if the curl doesn't work try either or both of those

[smoug25]

@Avi-Robusta after sending your request to my thanos I got valid response with metrics. Let me narrow down one point. I use thanos without auth but it behind proxy with auth by JWT that expected in header 'Authorization: Bearer JWT_TOKEN'. And my alertmanager sites behind the same proxy but I get 400 code in response.

Hello, @Avi-Robusta. Do you have any updates with this issue?

[Avi-Robusta]

Hi @smoug25 , I wasnt able to replicate the issue, Would you like to jump on a call for me to debug this with you? You can pick a time from my Calendly.

[smoug25]

Hi @Avi-Robusta, Do you have any ideas that we could do for better issue understanding?

[Sheeproid]

Hi @smoug25 . Avi is currently not available. It will be easier to discuss in the Slack community in the #support channel.

[aantn]

@smoug25 can you confirm if this is still happening or if it was fixed?

[smoug25]

@aantn I'v updated to 0.10.29 and problem still relevant.

[aantn]

Weird. If you run the curl command from the robusta-runner pod, does it work? I am trying to figure out what is different about the way the runner connects.

[smoug25]

If I make a Curl request from the robusta-runners Pod, it works fine and I receive a status code of 200 (OK).
