we are using Splunk Synthetic App in order to set up and run some transactions that I created with Python selenium script. I am running into problems when I try and get Splunk to run my Python program(which runs on chrome). This was working fine till last week and started failing. Tried to update the Splunk forwarder to a latest version and still its failing. The program runs fine through command line. any help on why it's failing is greatly helpful. Thanks in advance
