i installed python Splunk_SA_Scientific_Python_linux_x86_64 to import numpy module and follow the instruction in readme file but i got this error :
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "test.py", line 4, in
import numpy as np
File "/splunk/splunk/etc/apps/Splunk_SA_Scientific_Python_linux_x86_64/bin/linux_x86_64/lib/python2.7/site-packages/numpy/init.py", line 180, in
from . import add_newdocs
ImportError: cannot import name add_newdocs

Do you have add_newdocs.py in this directory?

 /splunk/splunk/etc/apps/Splunk_SA_Scientific_Python_linux_x86_64/bin/linux_x86_64/lib/python2.7/site-packages/numpy/

If not, that's the cause.

Another possibility is that maybe these files are owned by someone other than the splunk user? The below might fix it:

 chown -Rf splunk.  /splunk/splunk/etc/apps/Splunk_SA_Scientific_Python_linux_x86_64/

i have the add_newdocs.py file in /splunk/splunk/etc/apps/Splunk_SA_Scientific_Python_linux_x86_64/bin/linux_x86_64/lib/python2.7/site-packages/numpy

and its own to the splunk user

It's possible that something else you imported prior has already imported a module named add_newdocs.

What happens if you remove previous imports in test.py?
