Summary

I configured GitLab Self-Monitoring per the documentation.

The Group 'GitLab Instance Administrators' and Project 'GitLab self monitoring' are created successfully.

Sadly I cannot see any useful data there. The Project only contains one file 'README.md' which in turn contains a 'More information' link that leads to a 404. The link is (slightly redacted): https://*****/gitlab-instance-administrators-99919e8f/gitlab-self-monitoring/master/help/administration/monitoring/gitlab_self_monitoring_project/index

A default environment 'production' was created. CI/CD is empty.
The prometheus integration is configured and activated correctly.
The 'Operations - Metrics' dashboard shows 'Waiting for performance data' and nothing else. It has been linke this for some hours now.

Am I misunderstanding the documentation and need to do anything else? Am I missing some setting that needs to be taken care of before it works?

I have connected to prometheus using the http://localhost:9090 method and can query and see data there.
