Hi,

I am getting a Dispatch dir= does not exist anymore. Canceling search! error while running a scheduled search. The same search works fine when I do an adhoc search. Appreciate any help on this.

Thanks.

Hi,
I ran into the same problem. Just have a look to https://answers.splunk.com/answers/468312/how-do-i-get-splunk-to-limit-the-windows-file-path.html. If your Splunk instance runs on Windows reducing the path may / should solve yours too.
Regards.
