Hi, I'm new to splunk. I'm getting this error "Unable to initialize modular input "LTA" defined inside the app "LTATest": Introspecting scheme=LTA: script running failed (exited with code 1)."
So, how should I solve this error?

I am facing the same issue

" Unable to initialize modular input "testfile" defined inside the app "test1": Introspecting scheme=testfile: script running failed (exited with code 1)."

The modular input is developed using java . any hints on coming out of this problem is greatly appreciated .

Have a look in the splunkd logs for more error details :

You can use a search command like :

index=_internal error ExecProcessor source=*splunkd*

Here are some tips here for manually debugging a mod input :
http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/AdvancedDev/ModInputsDevTools

So you can manually execute the mod input(fill in the relevant values($STANZA_NAME ,$LTA_SCRIPT_NAME ) for your "ltatest" mod input) :

splunk cmd splunkd print-modinput-config LTA $STANZA_NAME | splunk cmd python $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/LTATest/bin/$LTA_SCRIPT_NAME
