We see the following -

 

/opt/apps/splunk/etc/apps/FireEye_iSIGHT_Splunk_App/bin
[splunk@qcsplapps bin]$ python tail_f.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "tail_f.py", line 2, in <module>
    from common import ISIGHT_ADDON_LOGS, get_curr_epoc_time, SPLUNK_LOG_DIR, LOCAL_CONFIG, DEFAULT_CONFIG
  File "/opt/apps/splunk/etc/apps/FireEye_iSIGHT_Splunk_App/bin/common.py", line 23, in <module>
    import splunk.entity as entity
ImportError: No module named splunk.entity

 

What do we need to do in order to import the splunk.entity module?
