I am getting the same error input header in wrong format. got '%!s(uint8=31)', expected 'tags'. Did you find a solution?

[Koheiru]

There are two different issues described.

The first one is like a feature =) It is about that tsbs_load tool couldn't read compressed file with metrics. Error message input header in wrong format. got '%!s(uint8=31)', expected 'tags' is a marker of this issue. So, you can do one of the following:

• use pipe as described in documentation

#> cat /tmp/timescaledb-data.gz | gunzip | ./tsbs_load_timescaledb ...

• store and use decompressed version of the logs-file

#> cat /tmp/timescaledb-data.gz | gunzip > /tmp/timescaledb-data.txt
#> tsbs_load config --target=timescaledb --data-source=/tmp/timescaledb-data.txt
... modify config ...
#> tsbs_load load timescaledb --config=./config.yaml

The second issue is critical and there is no workaround but I've already create fix for this issue (check #255). So, you can merge my fix or just use older version of timescaledb.
