SNMP Modular Input - MIB file not found in path

[ragkna]

Hello Experts,

Splunk is not my area, but need to integrate with a product which I work on. I have read and configured SNMP modular input in Splunk. In the Splunk SNMP configuration, I'm trying to poll my device to get its stats. The device has got 3 MIB files which converted to python modules. First I tried by keeping .py files in '.../mibs' folder (as directed) and then packaged these files to .egg as the first try did not work out. In both cases, I get below error in splunkd.log:

02-20-2014 22:53:49.784 +1100 ERROR ExecProcessor - message from "python /Applications/splunk/etc/apps/snmp_ta/bin/snmp.py" Traceback (most recent call last):

Do I miss any steps? I tried same approach by installing Splunk on a Windows 7 and Mac OS X and got the same error as above.

I even tested my device configs through MIB browser which yields stats perfectly.
I've configured latest version (1.2.1) of SNMP modular input.

You most likely haven't declared your MIB name properly in your setup stanza.

So if you have FOO.MIB and you generate FOO.py and you put FOO.py in the snmp_ta/bin/mibs directory , then this is what the MIB Names field should look like in your setup :
