[🐛 Bug]: Issues when using selenium-remote-driver and opentelemetry sdk

What happened?

Selenium java remote web driver currently initialize OptenTelemetrySdk instance by itself and that makes impossible to use pre configured OpenTelemetry instances (exception thrown).

Also it’s impossible to use opentelementry-agent with selenium.

How can we reproduce the issue?

// configure opentelementry instance and set it as global
OpenTelemetrySdk.builder()
     .setTracerProvider(sdkTracerProvider)                 
     .setPropagators(ContextPropagators.create(W3CTraceContextPropagator.getInstance()))
     .buildAndRegisterGlobal();

// then try use selenium
new RemoteWebDriver(remoteAddress, capabilities)

To reproduce issue with agent add “-javaagent:path/to/opentelemetry-javaagent.jar” to project using selenium remote and JPMS.

Relevant log output

Wrapped by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: GlobalOpenTelemetry.set has already been called. GlobalOpenTelemetry.set must be called only once before any calls to GlobalOpenTelemetry.get. If you are using the OpenTelemetrySdk, use OpenTel
emetrySdkBuilder.buildAndRegisterGlobal instead. Previous invocation set to cause of this exception.

Ok, thanks, I’ll try to get a smaller repro this afternoon and raise tomorrow. I’ll also try to set enableTracing=false when creating the RemoteWebDriver

[diemol]

that seems to be a different issue, a new bug report would be nice
