Getting an error code=5 whenever running an alert action from Puppet Report Viewer

action=puppet_generate_detailed_report - Alert action script returned error code=5

First time setup, how do I troubleshoot this?

It appears transaction_uuid is required.  Not sure if this is supposed to come from alert metadata, but adding it to Splunk results e.g.

| eval transaction_uuid="bolttest_" . host . "_" .strftime(now(),"%s")

seems to work

The transaction_uuid field added to the results works for bolt task, I haven't figured out how any of the other alert actions are to be used
