External search command 'getlocalhost' returned error code 1

[gcgrtorres]

Unable to run Splunk S.O.S on indexer, there is no Server to query in the drop down list. I get the following error when I select the app home page

[subsearch]: External search command 'getlocalhost' returned error code 1.  External search command 'getallhosts' returned error code 1.

This indicates that the getlocalhost.py python search command did not execute properly. We should be able to find out what happened by :

• Looking in $SPLUNK_HOME/var/log/splunk/python.log
• Running the command manually with $SPLUNK_HOME/bin/splunk cmd python getinternalhost.py
• If the former command doesn't show anything of interest, set export PYTHONVERBOSE=1 then run it again and let us know what output you get.
