Promtail Syslog - getting connection Refused

[erick]

Hello Promtail Experts,

I'm getting connection refused from rsyslogd to promtail-syslog service.

Anything else i can check?

Thank you.

Setup: Kubernetes - no netpol setup.

Rsyslog pod log:

rsyslogd: cannot connect to promtail-syslog:1514: Connection refused [v8.2004.0 try https://www.rsyslog.com/e/2027 ]

Rsyslogd config:

action(type="omfwd" protocol="tcp" target="promtail-syslog" port="1514" Template="RSYSLOG_SyslogProtocol23Format" TCP_Framing="octet-counted" KeepAlive="on")

Kubernetes service: i can see promtail-syslog created and bound to the datasets of the promtail.

I tried creating a busybox and connecting via curl to the promtail service i'm getting the same connection refused as well.
