## Shared troubleshooting topics

These guides apply to all EDOT SDKs:
- [Enable debug logging](https://docs-v3-preview.elastic.dev/elastic/docs-content/pull/5399/troubleshoot/ingest/opentelemetry/edot-sdks/enable-debug-logging): Learn how to enable debug logging for EDOT SDKs to troubleshoot application-level instrumentation issues.
- [No application-level telemetry visible in Kibana](https://docs-v3-preview.elastic.dev/elastic/docs-content/pull/5399/troubleshoot/ingest/opentelemetry/edot-sdks/missing-app-telemetry): Diagnose lack of telemetry flow due to issues with EDOT SDKs.
- [Proxy settings for EDOT SDKs](https://docs-v3-preview.elastic.dev/elastic/docs-content/pull/5399/troubleshoot/ingest/opentelemetry/edot-sdks/proxy): Configure proxy settings for EDOT SDKs when your application runs behind a proxy.
- [Missing or incomplete traces due to SDK sampling](https://docs-v3-preview.elastic.dev/elastic/docs-content/pull/5399/troubleshoot/ingest/opentelemetry/edot-sdks/misconfigured-sampling-sdk): Troubleshoot missing or incomplete traces caused by SDK-level sampling configuration.
- [Troubleshoot trace context header propagation](https://docs-v3-preview.elastic.dev/elastic/docs-content/pull/5399/troubleshoot/ingest/opentelemetry/edot-sdks/trace-context-propagation): Troubleshoot missing or broken distributed traces when combining OpenTelemetry instrumentation with Elastic APM agents.


## Supported architectures

EDOT SDKs are tested and supported only with [EDOT Collector Gateway](https://docs-v3-preview.elastic.dev/elastic/elastic-agent/tree/main/reference/edot-collector/modes#edot-collector-as-gateway) or [Managed OTel intake](https://docs-v3-preview.elastic.dev/elastic/opentelemetry/tree/main/reference/motlp). Using EDOT SDKs directly with APM Server's OTel intake is not supported.

<warning>
  Avoid using EDOT SDKs alongside any other APM agent, including Elastic APM agents. Running multiple agents in the same application process may lead to unexpected behavior, conflicting instrumentation, or duplicated telemetry.
