Are there any dependencies for this app? I installed it on our Splunk Enterprise 6.1 dev box and restarted Splunk. When I launch the app, it says "Loading..." and seems to hang. I'm wondering if there's something else I need to install to get this working or does the first launch just take a really long time.

It seems some stuff I added after 6.1-testing actually aren't supported by 6.1 😞 oops.
The things you posted in your log would be easy to fix, but once fixed you'd stumble over the big one - exposing the calculated fields endpoint manually apparently is only supported from 6.2.0 on.

So yeah... upgrade to 6.2, or 6.3 while you're at it 😄

Upgrading to 6.3 fixed the problem.

It should work without any dependencies, though dev and most testing was on 6.2.

Your symptoms sound like some JS failing, open your browser's JS console and reload.

Odd, nothing in the mod queue either. Pastebin it? Describe errors, if any? Gotta kill airport time somehow...

I can't find any js errors in the sea of css issues... What browser are you using? Those css issues suggest it may be old or weird.

I did see two 404s for core simplexml js files, that can't be good.

I usually use Firefox, but Chrome also fails to load. Here is what is in the Chrome log:
