Why am I getting splunk-MonitorNoHandle errors in the splunkd.log from domain controllers with universal forwarders installed?
Hi,
I'm receiving a bunch of splunk-MonitorNoHandle errors in the splunkd log. These errors are coming from domain controllers with the Universal Forwarder installed with apps Splunk_TA_windows, TA-DNSServer-NT6, and TA-DomainController-NT6. I can't seem to find anything online about these error messages and what they could mean. Does anyone have experience with these errors?
message from ""C:\Program Files\SplunkUniversalForwarder\bin\splunk-MonitorNoHandle.exe"" splunk-monitornohandle - DisplayError: The system cannot find the file specified.\r\n
message from ""C:\Program Files\SplunkUniversalForwarder\bin\splunk-MonitorNoHandle.exe"" splunk-monitornohandle - GetServiceHandle - OpenService failure for 'SplunkMonitorNoHandle'! Error = 1060

I was getting these errors also. There is a file called SplunkMonitorNoHandledrv.inf in the bin directory. After i installed the file the errors were resolved and i was able to successfully monitor the DNS debug file

Installing the inf file seems to have done the trick on our servers as well.
One thing we noted: most servers were OK, but some 2008 R2 servers were not.
Apart from that, it seems that it is Server 2012, and 2008 core / 2012 core that have failed to pick this up on their own.

I found that also. Half were ok but the other half had issues. At least it's a simple fix

What do you mean by "installed the file"? You say the file is already there. (...?)

It is already there. It is an inf file so you can right-click it and select install.

Ah.. literally install it 🙂 I thought maybe you meant moving it to some specific folder. Tnx!
