Deployment client as Universal Forwarder

Splunk_U
Path Finder

I have made the UF as the deployment client. In the deployment server I have created an app that have the inputs.conf file. I want that inputs.conf file will be deployed to the UF. Now when ever I am trying to do that the inputs.conf file in the UF becoming an one liner file with all the lines appending. Can you please help me out?

I would recommend using an editor like Notepad ++ or Ultra Edit if your on windows.

Sounds like you're using some kind of editor to create the inputs.conf that's mangling the End of lines. I'd suggest you use something like vi if on *nix or notepad on windows.
