Hi rawatvineet,

is there any special need why you want to install the Google maps App in Splunk 6?

Splunk 6 comes with build-in maps and the Google Maps App is not released for Splunk 6.

cheers, MuS

Hi rawatvineet,

best thing to do here is to wait for an update of the Cisco Security Suite for Splunk 6 so you don't have to install the Goggle Maps App anymore.
