reports getting delivered before calculation completes

manikdham — Thu, 16 Jun 2011 09:04:35 GMT

This is the PDF report which we get at 11:50 PM daily as it has been scheduled to run at this time. But in the report i see few fields are incomplete. I see "Loading/Processing bar" over there instead of the count. That means it got delivered before it completes its calculation. Is there anything to correct this...????

I think you can probably deal with this via the information posted here:

http://www.splunk.com/wiki/Community:TroubleshootingPDFServer

It is likely that your timeout has been reached and needs to be increased.

    Since the PDF server waits for the Splunk process to send search results, a long running search may not get sent to the PDF server before a timeout occurs. If this is the case, you should edit the pdf_server.conf on the PDF server and alter the firefox timeout setting to be much larger than the default of 240 seconds. 

[settings]
firefox_timeout = 400
