You need to copy the windhcp_form.html mako template to the correct place in your installation.

The "Getting Started" instructions for the Windows DHCP app specify the following actions be performed after installation:

IMPORTANT To ensure the proper layout, you must copy ./WinDHCP/appserver/static/windhcp_form.html to $SPLUNK_HOME/share/splunk/search_mrsparkle/templates/view/ and then restart Splunk Web:

$ cp $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/WinDHCP/appserver/static/windhcp_form.html $SPLUNK_HOME/share/splunk/search_mrsparkle/templates/view/ 
$ $SPLUNK_HOME/bin/splunk restart splunkweb
