:::{dropdown} Elastic Agent becomes unhealthy with a host URL parsing error related to the Prometheus collector metricset
27+
**Applies to: {{agent}} 9.2.1**
28+
29+
On November 13th 2025, a known issue was discovered that causes Elastic Agent to become unhealthy with the error `host parsing failed for prometheus-collector: error parsing URL: parse "http://localhost:EDOT_COLLECTOR_METRICS_PORT": invalid port ":EDOT_COLLECTOR_METRICS_PORT" after host`.
30+
31+
This problem has no effect on the operation of Elastic Agent besides incorrectly marking it as unhealthy. The `prometheus/metrics` input that is
32+
affected is incorrectly created when certain output types (Logstash, Kafka) or output parameters (for example, `loadbalance`) are used.
33+
34+
For more information, check [#11169](https://github.com/elastic/elastic-agent/issues/11169).
35+
36+
**Workaround**
37+
38+
Affected users must set the **Monitoring runtime** advanced policy setting in {{fleet}} to the **Process** runtime to work around this issue. This is the runtime
39+
mode that is already being used when this problem occurs. The same can be done in a standalone agent by setting `agent.monitoring._runtime_experimental: process` in its `elastic-agent.yaml` file:
40+
41+
```yaml
42+
agent.monitoring:
43+
_runtime_experimental: process
44+
```
45+
46+
For more details, check [the comments](https://github.com/elastic/elastic-agent/issues/11169#issuecomment-3553232394) in the related issue.
47+
48+
The fix will be included in version 9.2.2.

On September 17, 2025, a known issue was discovered that can cause {{agent}} upgrades to get stuck if an upgrade attempt fails under specific conditions. This happens because the coordinator’s `overrideState` remains set, leaving the agent in a state that appears to be upgrading.
