Not receiving data from Ruby newrelic_rpm gem

[Excds]

Two problems with receiving data from the Ruby newrelic_rpm gem.

First problem is that the Ruby gem sends the data specifying version, license and method to call in the URI path instead of as parameters: /agent_listener/#{PROTOCOL_VERSION}/#{@license_key}/#{method}

If I modify the Ruby gem to instead send this as parameters to the URI "/agent_listener/invoke_raw_method", then tinelic accepts the requests. The problem then being that it can't seem to parse the data.

@Excds If you can make kind of dummy ruby app that should send telemetry to newrelic I can check it

Was able to get this to work by adding this initializer:

module NewRelic
  module Agent
    class NewRelicService
      # The path on the server that we should post our data to
      def remote_method_uri(method, format)
        params = {
          'run_id' => @agent_id,
          'marshal_format' => format,
          'method' => method,
          'license_key' => @license_key,
          'protocol_version' => PROTOCOL_VERSION
        }
        uri = "/agent_listener/invoke_raw_method"
        uri << '?' + params.map do |k,v|
          next unless v
          "#{k}=#{v}"
        end.compact.join('&')
        uri
      end
    end
  end
end

Basically overriding the NewRelic RPM code. I dont think all the data is sending properly though. I only get errors and database information. No requests. Also noticed that I keep getting this returned from the server:

NewRelic::Agent::NewRelicService::CollectorError: : NewRelic: unknown method error_event_data

Looks like that isn't configured for collection.
