Any Compatibility issues with Splunk 4.2

Hi, after installing the F5 app using the Splunk 4.2 web interface (not through unzipping manually in ..etc/apps folder), when i restart Splunk, i get this warning message (before configuring the F5 app):

    Checking conf files for typos...

Possible typo in stanza [connection_failed] in /opt/splunk/etc/apps/SplunkforF5/default/eventtypes.conf, line 3: viewstate.resultView = normalView
Possible typo in stanza [connection_success] in /opt/splunk/etc/apps/SplunkforF5/default/eventtypes.conf, line 7: viewstate.resultView = normalView

Since the current version of the F5 app is older than the release of Splunk version 4.2, is the current F5 app compatible with Splunk 4.2?

It should - the "Checking conf files for typos" bit seems to be just a warning type of message. I've not heard of any issues installing the applications.

I have the same issue and would like to know if you found a solution.

Either ignore it since its warning messages. Or upgrade to the new F5 apps and/or upgrade to the newer Splunk version 5 and above.
