node_exporter command line flags

It's started with systemd using:

EnvironmentFile=/etc/default/prometheus-node-exporter
ExecStart=/usr/bin/prometheus-node-exporter $ARGS

and $ARGS is empty:

# cat /etc/default/prometheus-node-exporter 
# Set the command-line arguments to pass to the server.
# Due to shell escaping, to pass backslashes for regexes, you need to double
# them (\\d for \d). If running under systemd, you need to double them again
# (\\\\d to mean \d), and escape newlines too.

Are you running node_exporter in Docker?

no

What did you do that produced an error?

started node exporter

What did you expect to see?

no error and battery stats in metrics

What did you see instead?

error and no battery stats in metrics
