Why I am getting "ERROR BTreeCP - checkpoint failed: removal of dir /opt/splunkforwarder/var/lib/splunk/fishbucket/splunk_private_db/snapshot.old failed: Directory not empty" error message in splunkd.log and also indexing is not happening during this message period.

Go to this folder and check:
/opt/splunkforwarder/var/lib/splunk/fishbucket/splunk_private_db.

May be due to some Permission Issues.

This usually happens if you run splunk as the root user and then try and run it later as the splunk user. Try this process:

be root
/opt/splunkforwarder/bin/splunk stop
ps -ef | grep splunk 

check nothing is running, then

chown -R splunk:splunk /opt/splunkforwarder 
su – splunk
/opt/splunkforwarder/bin/splunk start
