Hello -
I installed FireEye App a while ago on my search head. The search head failed to come back up after I restart it. Here is the output when I tried to start it again from command line. Any idea how to fix?
splunkweb is not running.
splunkd is not running. [FAILED]
Splunk> Be an IT superhero. Go home early.

Problem parsing indexes.conf: The homePath "/opt/splunk/var/lib/splunk/fireeye/db" of index "fireeye" is repeated multiple times (already specified as homePath of index "fe").
Validating databases (splunkd validatedb) failed with code '1'. Please file a case online at http://www.splunk.com/page/submit_issue
Thanks.
this issue has been fixed in fireeye 2.0.2.
Yes. I got the fix from the App owner as I was working with him at .conf2012 earlier today. He will update the code later on tonight to the repository. Should be version 2.0.2 or up.
But to get your Splunk or search head working until the fix is ready, you have to go to find the indexer.conf file in the FireEye App and do the configuration change below to start the splunk again.
/opt/splunk/etc/apps/{FireEye, or SplunkforFireEye}/default
[fireeye]
coldPath = $SPLUNK_DB/fireeye/colddb
homePath = $SPLUNK_DB/fireeye/db
thawedPath = $SPLUNK_DB/fireeye/thaweddb
[fe]
coldPath = $SPLUNK_DB/fe/colddb
homePath = $SPLUNK_DB/fe/db
thawedPath = $SPLUNK_DB/fe/thaweddb
Hope this help.
I get the same exact error after a fresh Splunk install and adding the FireEye app from splunkbase.
Have you had any feedback on this issue?
