Hi I am encountering the following issue when I try to add an additional data input for Website Input app:

"Encountered the following error while trying to save: Argument validation for scheme=web_input failed: The script returned with exit status 1."

Seeking help on how to resolve this issue thank you!

Can you run the following searches and see if anything comes back that might explain the issue?

index=_internal (sourcetype=web_availability_modular_input) OR traceback

Some more troubleshooting techniques are here: https://lukemurphey.net/projects/splunk-website-monitoring/wiki/Troubleshooting

Would you be so kind to let me know what the issue was? I just want to make sure that I can represent it in the troubleshooting guide (or improve my error messaging if possible).
