Container signoz-init-clickhouse Hangs Forever
After installation, you might sometimes see the signoz-init-clickhouse container getting stuck. The logs will show:
docker logs signoz-init-clickhouse
# Fetching histogram-binary for linux/amd64
# Connecting to github.com (20.205.243.166:443)
This indicates the helper binary wasn’t fetched from GitHub. For these issues, restart the SigNoz containers and allow time for the helper binary to download:
docker compose restart
