Errors everywhere / splunk.js SDK

Hello,

i am trying to start a search with the splunk-js-sdk and some own js-code. i've got several issues by programming this. i have no idea what's wrong and i have read every tutorial or documentation but it seems that nothing really match to my problems.

Dashboard-XML Code:

<.dashboard stylesheet="splunk-mva.css" script="splunk.js, splunk-mva.js, jquery-1.7.2.js".>

splunk-mva.js is my own libary for the searchcalls.

splunk-mva.js Code:

var http = new splunkjs.ProxyHttp(".."); <--- Param"/proxy" doenst work for me and why do i need http-instance? i am inside splunk.

var splunkService = new splunkjs.Service(http, {sessionKey: document.cookie}); <-- user:/password: doesn't work either

var queryString = "select * from bild b join shopposition s on b.bildnummer=s.bildnummer\n join shoppositionartikelgruppe spag on s.datensatznummer=spag.shopposinummer\n join artikelnummer artnr on artnr.artikelgruppennummer=spag.artikelgruppennummer\n where artnr.artikelnummer='92956795'";

var searchParams = { output__mode: "JSON", exec___mode: "normal", id: "mvaJob" };

I tried two search-methods, both don't work for me:

first

splunkService.oneshotSearch(queryString, searchParams,  function(err, results) {code}

second

splunkService.search(queryString, searchParams, function(err, job) {code}

If you are inside splunk itself, you might as well use the SplunkJS instead of the SDK.
