Log entry to Splunk using python

[sapta6191]

I was able to write a python code using requests to post data in Splunk

import requests
url='SPLUNK_URL'
Header = {'Authorization': 'Splunk '+'1234567'}
json = {"index":"xxx_yyy", "event": { 'message' : "Value" } }
r = requests.post(url, headers=Header, json, verify=False)

But sometimes get this error ConnectionError: ('Connection aborted.', OSError("(10054, 'WSAECONNRESET')")).

Is there any way to avoid this error ?

Same problem here .. looks like a performance problem on the forwarder 

('Connection aborted.', error(10054, 'An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host'))
