Scala Config Error with GCP

Hi,

I’m trying to integrate the GCP approach, but I get this error:

Any suggestions?

in the config.hocon I’ve applied:

interface = “0.0.0.0”
port = 80

Many thanks in advance.

If you’re trying to run the Scala stream collector on a privileged port (e.g., 80) you’ll need to run the command as root. It’s recommended to avoid this by running the collector on a non-privileged port (e.g., 8080) and using a Google HTTP(S) load balancer that will forward traffic from your load balancer on port 80 to your instance group on port 8080.

In every Linux/Unix system you need root privileges to bind port below 1024.

Thank you guys, this solved the issue :+1:
