Hi All,

I am trying to install the universal forwarder on a UNIX Tru64 server. I am using the zip version of splunkforwarder-6.6.4-00895e76d346-FreeBSD9-amd64.tgz the universal forwarder. After extracted the zip in my server i tried to start the splunk forwarder using ./splunk start, but I'm receiving cannot execute. Any suggestion will help me a lot.

Thanks in advance.

Hey

Are you executing that from the $SPLUNK_HOME/bin directory?

Is the whole splunk folder owned by a user that you are impersonating and you have exec permissions on that?

yes, The whole folder is owned by the same user.

Can you help me in recognizing the correct universal forwarder for this server (OSF1 Tru64 UNIX V5.1 2650 alpha)? Should I choose the BSD version of UF or I should go for HPUX version of UF ?
