It was working fine and suddenly got the following error of nowhere and not geeting data anymore.
11-03-2011 16:53:50.854 -0500 INFO PipelineComponent - MetricsManager:probeandreport() took longer than seems reasonable (12380 milliseconds) in callbackRunnerThread. Might indicate hardware or splunk limitations.

Any idea??
If you log into the machine with the forwarder, can you access the directory through the command line? Can you view the files in the directory? Does splunk have the proper permissions to view those files?
Also what does your inputs.conf look like on the forwarder?
It was working till midnight. It suddenly stopped and gave that error. when I restarted forwarder it started working again
