After upgrade to 6.3.3 and Splunk DB Connect from 1.x to 2, why is my dashboard launching with the incorrect app context URL?

After an upgrade to 6.3.3 and a DBX query upgrade from 1.x to 2, I have a dashboard that will not run.

In search, the dashboard link tries to run from here: /app/search/MyDashboard
- but the reports all fail because "dbxquery is not a valid command. " Search app recognizes that the app context is splunk_app_db_connect, but is launching with a bad URL.

If the URL is manually replaced with the correct context...
/app/splunk_app_db_connect/MyDashboard
It runs just fine. -- The xml in here is just fine.
splunk/etc/apps/splunk_app_db_connect/local/data/ui/views
And oddly when the dashboard is edited, the edits are saved properly.

Is there a quick fix?

Make your splunk_app_db_connect shared globally such as the powershell add on i have in the app manager screenshot below:

FYI, you can give me more points by upvoting and that way you dont lose any points yourself. NO need to give me points. I guess giving points is good if you answer a question and another person answers the same question, and then the person asking the question marks your's as the answer, but you feel the other person who answered deserved the points more than you... perhaps they had a better answer, etc. I've returned your points you gave me. Please upvote instead 😉
