Getting Data In

Data input script stop !

I am collecting logs every 5 seconds using a script.
However, script execution is suddenly stopped.
Why does the script stop? Is it a Splunk bug?
My version is 7.3.3.

Tell us more about the script and how it is run.  Splunk does not run scripts every 5 seconds so how are you doing so?

Did your script log an error when it failed?  Did the process running the script log an error?  What else happened at the time the script stopped?

Hello richgalloway 

Splunk can run scripts with crontab and second.

Error message is

Error Message occurs whenever a script is executed.

Then at some point, the result of the script does not occur.
