drilldown not using correct time range

lsnow — Mon, 28 Jan 2013 18:34:25 GMT

I'm trying to do a drilldown in simple XML that uses a link like this:

/app/appname/formname?form.token=Sitename

When the new chart launches, the search is running against all time and the URL has "earliest=0" in part of the URL, after the #:

http://splunkserver/en-US/app/appname/formname?form.token=Sitename#formname?form.token=Sitename&**earliest=0**&_suid=13593966279620586614026282926

Even if I specify "earliest=$earliest$&latest=$latest$" in the link from the original report, I see the correct times for earliest and latest before the # in the drilldown form URL, but I end up with "earliest=0" after the #, and the search defaults to "All Time". What am I missing?

thank you for feedback. That is a known issue in versions 5.0/5.0.1. The fix will soon be available with release of 5.0.2.

I've done the same thing on my drilldown and I'm getting the same result and I'm on splunk 5.0.5

I have lately tried this again with my drilldown and I'm still getting the same result. I'm currently on splunk 6.0.3
