Cisco ACI for splunk error when trying to add APIC

pdealmeida — Wed, 30 Sep 2020 00:49:08 GMT

Hi All,

I am receiving the below error hen trying to add an APIC on my splunk instance.

Encountered the following error while trying to update: Error while posting to url=/servicesNS/nobody/TA_cisco-ACI/admin/cisco_aci_server_setup/cisco_aci_server_setup_settings

Any idea on how this can be solved?

This is late, but I took this from someone having the same issue with the TA for Cisco IPS. This only happened after I forgot to disable SSL.

Regardless, this worked for me

Navigate to $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/TA_cisco-ACI

Remove app.conf
Remove passwords.conf

Try again

Did you find a solution for this problem that you can share?

I am running into the same problem,

This Path does not exist under splunk directory:
url=/servicesNS/nobody/TA_cisco-ACI/admin/cisco_aci_server_setup/cisco_aci_server_setup_settings

Hi,

Unfortunately i have faced with same error when adding aci controller in fresh installation.
I have tried to find files and was able to find only app.conf. There is no file passwords.conf.
I guess it is because the installation and configuration is not over yet.

So, would be appreciated for any solution.

Thanks,

Hi,

I downloaded Cisco ACI Add-on for Splunk Enterprise 4.2.1 and Cisco ACI App for Splunk Enterprise 4.2.4 on a 6.6.6 Splunk server version.

each time i tried to install the add-on SSL dsable checked or uncheched or disable i have the same error :

"Error while posting to url=/servicesNS/nobody/TA_cisco-ACI/admin/cisco_aci_server_setup/cisco_aci_server_setup_settings".

There is no "app.conf" or "passwords.conf" file in $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/TA_cisco-ACI.

try to use the last version and follow the instructions and it will work :

Follow below steps to disable the SSL verification:
- For Password based Authentication and Remote User based Authentication:
- Provide credentials from setup page.
- passwords.conf file will be created in TA_cisco-ACI/local folder with sample stanza : [credential:x.x.x.x:,admin,True:].
- Here, default value of SSL verification will be True.
- Change this value from True to False.
- Restart Splunk.
