Error Message Splunk Enterprise 7.1.2 and SA-Eventgen 6.5.3.

[EnricoH]

Hi,

I have installed Splunk Enterprise 7.1.2 and SA-Eventgen 6.5.3. I have not installed an extra Python version. Splunk is using its own python 2.7 engine. I use Windows 2012 R2 server operation system. I have set the environment variables:

PYTHONPATH=C:\splunk\bin;C:\Splunk\Python-2.7\Lib;C:\Splunk\Python-2.7\Lib\site-packages;C:\Splunk\Python-2.7\Lib\site-packages\splunk;C:\Splunk\Python-2.7\Scripts

SPLUNK_HOME=C:\splunk

SPLUNKPATH=C:\splunk

After activating of Eventgen in Data Inputs no events are generated. I have looked into the splunkd.log file and found a huge list of the following error messages:

Can anyone give me an idea of what I have done wrong? I have looked into a tutorial video a YouTube and have done the same settings but I still get the errors.

Best regards,
