I am interested in knowing if it's possible to restore files. I somehow deleted "sendemail.py" file, tried modifying and receiving a following error:

 Installed Files Integrity Checker: File Integrity checks found 1 files that did not match the system-provided manifest. 
 Review the list of problems reported by the InstalledFileHashChecker in splunkd.log File Integrity Check View ; 
 potentially restore files from installation media, change practices to avoid changing files, or work with support to identify the problem

You can get the sendemail.py from other instance from this location $SPLUNK_HOME$/etc/apps/search/bin/sendemail.py or else below is the file

Thanks a lot, does it matter which version we are on? Currently I have Splunk 6.6.2

sendmail.py doesn't changed much from 6.5.0.

Oh ok great, thanks a lot. Do you know why I would be receiving this error while sending an email:

command="sendemail", 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'find' while sending mail to: test@user.com

Apparently, I tried replacing the file. However, still getting the same error:

Installed Files Integrity Checker: File Integrity checks found 1 files that did not match the system-provided manifest. Review the list of problems reported by the InstalledFileHashChecker in splunkd.log File Integrity Check View ; potentially restore files from installation media, change practices to avoid changing files, or work with support to identify the problem

Please execute this command

$SPLUNK_HOME$/bin/splunk validate files

or

you can modify installed_files_integrity parameter from limits.conf.
