Search process did not exit cleanly, exit_code=255, description="exited with code 255
Dear everyone,
Have a good day ahead.
I am having the following issue that need your advice. Recently, I have deployed Splunk in distributed environment as the following:
- 01 Master + License master
- 01 Search Head
- 02 Indexer
- 01 Heavy Forwarder
Without installing app on Search Head, the application is working fine without any error. However, whenever I install app on SH, the following error is appeared for one of our Indexing system:
"Search process did not exit cleanly, exit_code=255, description="exited with code 255". Please look in search.log for this peer in the Job Inspector for more info."
By checking the search.log, we see a lot of the following error:
12-03-2018 14:53:28.293 INFO ReducePhaseExecutor - ReducePhaseExecutor=1 action=PREVIEW
12-03-2018 14:53:28.701 ERROR SRSSerializer - could not read number of columns

12-03-2018 14:53:29.601 WARN SRSSerializer - could not read schema
Due to this error, I cannot search any event which is indexed by the problematic node.
Can you please advice how I should proceed further to fix this issue?
Thank you for your time in advance.
Regards,
Anh

exit_code = 255 was about no disk space left, in our case, at Why do we get the exited with code 255 errors?

the system is having nearly 1 TB free space. So I dont think this related to space on system.
Furthermore, I saw the following error on search.log:
12-03-2018 14:53:29.073 ERROR SRSSerializer - could not read number of columns
12-03-2018 14:53:29.073 WARN SRSSerializer - could not read schema
Is there anyone know what this error mean?
