title: Amazon Cloudwatch Agent won't start
body: <p>After installing Cloudwatch Agent on Amazon Linux 2 EC2, I ran <code>cloudwatch-agent-ctl status</code></p>
  <p>This command shows the status as <code>stopped</code></p>
  <p>I tried running 'cloudwatch-agent-ctl status` and got the following message:</p>
  <p><code>cwagent-otel-collector will not be started &quot;as it has not been configured yet&quot;</code></p>
  <p>Am not sure if the above message is causing CWAgent to not start. Any pointers?</p>
  <p>Any pointers on how to find why my CWAgent won't start?</p>
