 The original tracing example above was written for Accumulo 2.1.0 which uses OpenTelemetry 1.19.0. Accumulo 2.1.4 has been updated to use OpenTelemetry 1.48.0, which requires different configuration. When working with Accumulo 2.1.4 or any deployment using OpenTelemetry 1.48.0 or newer, use OTLP (OpenTelemetry Protocol) instead of the direct Jaeger exporter.
