Monitoring Splunk

modular input and ERROR AdminManagerDispatch cannot call handler

Hello,

I am trying to install a modular input.
On a standalone Splunk, there is no problem, the setup dashboard shows up perfectly.

But on an heavy forwarder I get the following error:
+200 ERROR AdminManagerDispatch - Cannot call handler 'TA_xxx' du to missing script 'my-script.py'.

The script is present in TA/bin/my_script.py
The TA/local/restmap.conf contains the stanza:

[admin_external:TA_string]
handlertype = python
handlerfile = my_script.py
handleractions = edit, list, remove, create

If anyone has a small idea ...

Cheers
Céline

Sounds like a permission problem.

And usually the scripts don't require a run permission but after checking ownership of folders I would try to add +x to the script.

Hello Skalliger.
You were right. Our windows git has modified the properties of all the files and there was no x anymore.
This is solved.

Thanks a lot.
Best Regards
Céline
