Sideview Utils Table Module Error

[Parameshwara]

Having issue with Table module. I just put <module name="Table"> in my XML and I get below error:

"Splunk encountered the following unknown module: "Table" .  The view may not load properly."

If Splunk says that you don't have the Table module, then either

1) You don't have the Sideview Utils app installed

2) You have Sideview Utils installed, but it's the old version from Splunkbase (1.3.5), which won't have a ton of stuff that was introduced in the 2.X versions. Notably the Table module wont be there. Note that if you go to the Manager section and it tells you that you have the latest version already, it only knows about the version on Splunkbase. Get Sideview Utils from the Sideview site http://sideviewapps.com/apps/sideview-utils The latest version is 2.4.7 and soon to be 2.4.8. The 2.X versions are fully backwards compatible with old usage from 1.3.X, so go ahead and upgrade, and you can check out the release notes to see just how much you're missing out on.

3) You have installed Sideview Utils manually by moving the directory into $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/ but you haven't restarted SplunkWeb. (not very likely)

You're right. I have a couple of Splunk box and I was testing it on a box that had Sideview Utils 1.3.5. Cheers!

Just two things to check - you are using this in advanced XML and that you have this in your XML (Up in the header);

It was an issue of using the Sideview Utils 1.3.5 which does not have the Table module. Cheers!

if you have the Table module but you forget to put the SideviewUtils module into the page, then you don't get an 'unknown module' error, because the module is technically there. what you get is actually a JS error when the module is initialized because it tries to call out to the shared code in the SideviewUtils module and it isn't there.
