Hi,

Anyone is using this app and is able to troubleshoot the app for me?
https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/3530/

I installed it but there was no result found, can't find any errors.

@markhill1 wondering if you could help on this? 
Thank you!

Do you get any errors in _internal?  index=_internal sourcetype=splunkd speedtest? Because I do.

I just installed and tested the app for you. The script file  (speedtest-cli.py) is not good.
The _internal shows:

Splunk\etc\apps\speedtest\bin\speedtest-cli.py" --json" ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: ''
and more errors with the python file.

So as a test I replaced it with a new version of speedtest (from https://github.com/sivel/speedtest-cli/blob/master/speedtest.py) (copied and replaced it into Splunk\etc\apps\speedtest\bin\speedtest-cli.py) and the app starts working.

Hi Azeemering,

Thanks for helping!
I didn't get any error from the below search.
index=_internal sourcetype=splunkd speedtest

Can I know how do I I get to <Splunk\etc\apps\speedtest\bin\speedtest-cli.py> to replace the new version of speedtest?

Is it under "edit dashboard" -> "source"?
Thanks a lot!

No it's in your filesystem under Splunk\etc\apps\speedtest\bin\

Just copy the text from https://github.com/sivel/speedtest-cli/blob/master/speedtest.py file and overwrite the Splunk\etc\apps\speedtest\bin\speedtest-cli.py file with it.
