The script is trying to create the folder in the below path but it fails with permission errors when it tries to create it.</P><P>d:\program files\splunkforwarder\etc\apps\&lt;myapp&gt;\bin\scripts</P><P>The forwarder is installed as local system.&nbsp;<BR />Also, if I execute the script manually everything works like it should. I've made sure that local system has full rights on the target folder.</P><P>Any ideas on what I need to do to get this working correctly?</P> Tue, 08 Jun 2021 18:19:30 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Permissions-issue-with-Splunk-windows-scripted-input/m-p/554949#M91936 morphis72 2021-06-08T18:19:30Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Permissions-issue-with-Splunk-windows-scripted-input/m-p/555176#M91972 <P>I was able to resolve this by dropping my data into a folder located at <SPAN>d:\program files\splunkforwarder\&lt;mydatafolder&gt;</SPAN></P> Wed, 09 Jun 2021 19:50:33 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Permissions-issue-with-Splunk-windows-scripted-input/m-p/555176#M91972 morphis72 2021-06-09T19:50:33Z
