Set-up on Linux (Ubuntu)

[uksysadminsfnz]

Hi Mic,

I am trying to set-up this app on Splunk for Linux which is running on Ubuntu, do you have any set-up documentation? I am pretty new to Splunk, i have uploaded the app, but presuming i must need to do some sort of additional configuration as i am getting a lot of errors from the input scripts, here is a list of them below:

I would appreciate any help as we want to get this up and running. The indexer has access to the Internet, which is what all i thought was needed for the app to work.

Welcome,

There certainly is some documentation for this app here...

http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/UnixApp/latest/User/AbouttheSplunkAppforUnix

Not sure about the errors, the scripts sometimes fail based on permissions...
