Happy to help! And thanks for letting me know it (mostly) worked. I guess I have some debugging to do on that environment variable. :)
One last thing... make sure you run this to get Vector to start after a reboot:
sudo systemctl enable vector.service
I put that in the gist after I sent the last email to you, so you may have done that already, but you may not have, and it doesn't hurt to do it twice. :)
Oh, and about the log prefix you mentioned... look in config/environments/production.rb for config.log_tags and comment that out. That's probably what's adding that stuff to your logs.

Thousands of developers love Honeybadger
Don't take our word for it. Here's what former Sentry users had to say about switching to Honeybadger:
"We tried Sentry, but it is just way too much for us. I love Honeybadger's simple and straightforward design."
"The fact we can get rid of three separate services sounds perfect for our (very) small team."
"Honeybadger's uptime monitoring, SLS/TLS validation, status page, and heartbeat features are really compelling and brilliant additions that will save me development time."
"Just replaced Sentry with Honeybadger and I'm loving it so far."
"Honeybadger fits me better. It's a simpler product, obvious how to use, and aimed at small companies who care for each customer."
"Honeybadger is the only service that doesn't look scary like I'm in the cockpit of an airplane."
Get monitoring done.
See the bigger picture, put things into context & detect anomalies before they become catastrophes.
