I get this error every hour at my installation:

msg="A script exited abnormally" input="./bin/scripted_inputs/deploy_splunk_ta_netscaler.py" stanza="default" status="exited with code 1"

Any idea on who to troubleshoot it?

Thanks.

Yeah, find the script in Linux and run it under the user you use to run splunk.

You might find more details under index=_internal source=*python*

You can manually execute the script to see the error it exits with on the console:

./splunk cmd python ../etc/apps/AppName/bin/scripted_inputs/deploy_splunk_ta_netscaler.py
