About 5% of the total population is using 2.5.1 right now (pretty typical for 1 week in), so I think this is probably on your end. However, I did push 2.5.2 this morning, so you can try downloading that. If you can't get it to work, I can send it through you via community slack as well.

Consider using the alternative app install method, via your Splunk Web UI if you have outbound internet access: https://youtu.be/RVUmSsS-81M
