I have deployed jaeger as daemon set on EKS. And it is running fine.

kubectl get all -n observability

Now I deployed hotrod app to send traces to my jaeger collector. Below is my manifest yaml.

apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
name: hotrod
labels:
app: hotrod
spec:
replicas: 1
selector:
matchLabels:
app: hotrod
template:
metadata:
labels:
app: hotrod
spec:
containers:
– name: hotrod
image: jaegertracing/example-hotrod:latest
ports:
– containerPort: 8080
env:
– name: OTEL_EXPORTER_JAEGER_ENDPOINT
value: “http://jaeger-collector:14250” # Update with your Jaeger collector endpoint

But when I open this app and send traces. It does not show up in jaeger.

I am expecting traces to be seen in jaeger. I am exposing pods – jaeger – 16686 and hotrod 8080
