Datadog-Heroku Buildpack troubleshooting
To start debugging Heroku, use the agent-wrapper command with the information/debugging commands listed in the Agent documentation.
For example, to display the status of your Datadog Agent and enabled integrations, run:
Next, verify the Datadog Agent is listening by sending a custom metric. From your project directory, run:
heroku run bash
# Once your Dyno has started and you are at the command line
echo -n "custom_metric:60|g|#shell" >/dev/udp/localhost/8125
After a few moments, use the metrics explorer to verify that the metric was received.
It can also be helpful to obtain Agent and Trace Agent logs from your running dyno.
