Configuration error in advanced dashboard

Branden
Builder

I have a dashboard that produces the results of various HiddenSavedSearches. They all work well except for one, which is showing the following error:

Configuration error - HiddenSavedSearch is being run as a schedule and is configured to listen to the time picker. Scheduled results will not be shown.

I'm confused. The HiddenSavedSearch is run on a schedule, just like all the other saved searches. I don't believe I am using the time picker here.

Here is the code that is producing the error:

<module name="HiddenSavedSearch" layoutPanel="panel_row8_col3" autoRun="True">
      <param name="savedSearch">Check Printers</param>
      <param name="useHistory">Auto</param>
      <module name="StaticContentSample" layoutPanel="panel_row8_col3">
         <param name="text">Printer status:</param>
      </module>
      <module name="HiddenPostProcess" layoutPanel="panel_row8_col3_grp1">
         <param name="search">search host="xyz" pr_status=DOWN OR pr_status=CONNECT | stats count | rangemap field=count severe=1-100 default=low</param>
            <module name="SingleValue">
               <param name="field">count</param>
               <param name="classField">range</param>
               <param name="beforeLabel">Printers down: </param>
            </module>
      </module>
</module>

Any idea why I'd be getting this error?

Thanks!

I was getting the exact same error on my dashboard. I was trying to share a saved search for use in multiple panels. The error disappeared when I removed the nested HiddenSavedSearch module. I only needed one parent HiddenSavedSearch module, and multiple HiddenPostProcess modules to change the search results.

(this is supposed to be an xml fragment - can't tell if it's going to display)

mysearch

chart count over applog_orgName | sort 30 count desc

    <module name="HiddenPostProcess" ...>
        <param name="search">timechart count span=1h</param>
    </module>
</module>
