Hello! I hope you can help! I have installed splunk enterprise 8.12 on my MAC OS 14.6.1 to study for an exam. Splunk installed fine. However the lab asked me to create an app called "destinations" which i did and i set then proper permissions. However when i go to the app in the search head and type "index=main" it sees it but doesn't display any records. I have copied down eventgen to the samples folder in Destinations  folder in the samples folder and copied the eventgen.conf to the local folder as directed but it still does not display. 

I really need this lab to work can you assist?  I used SPLK-10012.PDF instructions. not sure if you have access to that. i pulled down the files fro github  - eventgen.

Maybe this is an easy fix? 

Thank you
