Hello

I was trying to upgrade Splunk from 6.3 to 6.4, but the installation failed. In the system logs there's a log regarding Libxml2.dll.

Application popup: splunk.exe - System Error : The program can't start because libxml2.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.

Am I the only one who experienced this problem?
