make setup issue "ERROR: field <@timestamp> is duplicated, remove it or set 'overwrite: true' about prometheusbeat HOT 5 CLOSED

If you want to build the prometheusbeat binary from source just issue make. This should work. make setup is for the intial setup of a community beat (see e.g. https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/devguide/current/setting-up-beat.html)

from prometheusbeat.

Here's what I get...

Your folder structure should be /home/bwillcox/go/src/github.com/infonova/prometheusbeat and not /home/bwillcox/go/src/github.com/infonova/prometheusbeat/prometheusbeat

from prometheusbeat.

Yep that did it. Looks like there's a minor documentation issue in the README.md in the Clone section that has prometheusbeat appended the end of the path of the mkdir and cd commands. I could submit a pull request if that makes sense... Thank you for the help

from prometheusbeat.

Yes a PR would be great.
