This hasn't been reported before. Can you please clarify the exact circumstances under which this error is observed? What steps were taken to trigger it?

Never did find out why it had issues loading it, and I had to open a case with support to get it working. The problem ended up being file permissions issues - on their side, not mine.

Seeing this on the latest version of S.o.S... 3.2 on Splunk Enterprise (Windows 2008R2) 6.1.4. Trying to upgrade via web UI from 3.1.0 to 3.2.

When I try and update from the Apps Manager I get:
An error occurred while installing the app: 500

When I try and update via Install app from file I get:
There was an error processing the upload.

This stuff gets so old lol...

I should note that I simply deleted the app dir. in /etc/apps and installed from file via the UI and things worked fine after that.

I had this issue. It was a result of me having an open Explorer window in side of the /etc/apps/. I closed the explorer window and than the upload worked fine.
