How to resolve "ERROR ExecProcessor...No such file or directory" error from a python script through a universal forwarder?

Hi to all,
I installed on monitored server, by universal forwarding, an app that uses python script to load data about cpu, disk,..
The app contains a file table2event.py that start with:

#!/usr/bin/python

import time
import logging
import urllib2 as u
import os
import subprocess
import sys

global log

In splunkd.log I see several errors like

ERROR ExecProcessor - message from "python /opt/splunkforwarder/etc/apps/ta-adapter/bin/table2event.py iostat.sh" /bin/sh: \r: No such file or directory

How can I solve?
Thanks,
Andrea

Hi!

Did you check the file permission? Also, have you tested if the script is working locally on the universal forwarder?

Thanks.

Hi @andreac81,
I think the problem is your line ending characters. Your file was created or edited on a Windows system and uses Windows/DOS-style line endings (CR+LF), whereas Linux systems like Ubuntu require Unix-style line endings (LF).

There is a tool that can convert the two different styles for you called dos2unix.

Can you please try this?

Thanks
