Splunk Tenable Add-on: Anyone know why I'm getting this Python error?

[cdstealer]

Hi, I've installed splunk-add-on-for-tenable both 5.1.2 & 5.1.4, but neither work. Al I see in the ta_nessus.log is:

Any Ideas?

not sure of this above error.,. but, regarding the "IndexError: list index out of range"
found this interesting read.. sharing it with all...

Index Error: List index out of range means you are trying to get an item in a list that doesn't exist.

For Example, I have this list:

["a","b","c"]

So a is the 0th item, b is the 1st, and c is the 2nd.

I can get b by doing ["a","b","c"][1] because it is the first item and I am calling for the first item with [1].

An index error is what would happen if I tried to do this:

["a","b","c"][4]

There is no 4th item, so it errors.

Hi, Sorry, I probably should have explained that I know python and about out of index errors 🙂 But I need to know what the issue is.

Cheers
