Hi,

We tried to use this apps by following the instructions but we are having the following error with the shell script:
splunk@splunk$ ./bin/gen50gb.sh

File "data/datagen.py", line 76
with open(OUT_FILE, 'a', 0) as outFile:
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Regards

I believe the problem is the python you use (version < 2.5 have different syntax)...

try with a python v2.6 or point the shell script to a python v2.6 install path
