Hi

probably you have copy paste error with file name as those don’t match?

You could check if uf has read that file by

splunk list inputstatus

Hi @sekhar463,

at first probaby you don't need crcSalt option, so, try without.

Anyway, the syntax is fixed, <SOUCE> isn't a variable, you have to use it as is:

crcSalt = <SOURCE>

 Ciao.
