Hi,

This is clearly a syntax error, can you tell us line 30 correspond to what line in your yaml config file ?

Sample Config file :

# my global config
global:
  scrape_interval:     10s
  evaluation_interval: 10s

scrape_configs:
- job_name: 'prometheus'
  static_configs:
  - targets: ['prometheus_dns_name:9090']

- job_name: 'wmi_exporter'
  static_configs:
  - targets: ['windows_dns_name:9182']

Can you also confirm that the metrics are available at port 9182.

Good Luck
