Getting Data In

SolarWinds add-on not working

Path Finder

I'm on Splunk Enterprise 9.1.3, and I've configured the add-on (no proxy) with the SolarWinds server name, port, and credentials.  I've configured the inputs, and I see nothing.  Running tcpdump shows no traffic to the SolarWinds server or the configured port.

This is what I see in the log:

AttributeError: module 'socks' has no attribute 'PROXY_TYPE_HTTP_NO_TUNNEL'

I'd appreciate any help in getting this working.
