To disable default otlp metrics export

[ashok2709]

i have created my custom OtlpMeterRegistry and running that in my app, but from the error logs i can see some other thread named 'otlp-metrics-publisher-2' which is trying to export metrics to the url "http://localhost:4318/v1/metrics" and getting failed, how to remove/disable that?

ERROR LOG:

You will need to seek assistance from the micrometer communtiy with this question. As can be seen from the stack trace io.micrometer.registry.otlp.OtlpMeterRegistry belongs to micrometer.
