Not sure if this will work/apply for you. I did this with success on a ubuntu install (not windows) and entered true rather than 1. Splunk 7.2.5.
To do so, open etc/apps/Splunk_CiscoSecuriySuite/local/app.conf (or create it if it does not exist) and enter the following:
[install]
is_configured = true
You may need to restart Splunk after editing the config file. Splunk won't force you to view the setup screen once it recognizes the app is considered configured.

I know this is a dated question, but ran into the same issue. The solution for me was to increase MAX_DAYS_AGO in props.conf. Looks like based on your description of it not working for 6 year old data this was your issue as well. Since Splunk by default ignores dates over 5 1/2ish years old.
From the docs site:
Specifies the maximum number of days in the past, from the current date, that an extracted date can be valid.
For example, if MAX_DAYS_AGO = 10, Splunk software ignores dates older than 10 days from the current date and instead either uses the timestamp of the previous event, or uses the current index time of the event if it cannot determine a timestamp in the previous event.
The maximum settable number of days in the past is 10951.
Defaults to 2000 days
Note: If you have data that is more than 2000 days old, increase this setting.

Be sure you have Java 8+ installed on the system. I installed Java 9 (assuming this fulfilled the 8+ requirement) and got the same error you are seeing. When I backed the Java version down to 8 the error went away and I was able to see the Alexa input.

From Slack usergroup: Thanks guys! @dwaddle @Yorokobi @davidpaper
easy way: copy all buckets into the thawedb directory for each index on one of the indexers in the cluster. and manually roll them off when the data is no longer needed.
if a bucket is named <xxx>_<timestamp>_<timestamp> it's not clustered
<guid>_<xxx>_<timestamp>_<timestamp> is clustered
The replicated buckets are already (by definition) copied to other indexers, there's no need to copy them again.

Trying to understand what the procedure would be to migrate data. Situation:
Indexer was standalone. Has standalone buckets in some of its indexes. Was added to a multisite cluster. So now some buckets are clustered in those indexes.
Hardware for this indexer needs to be retired. What is the best procedure to migrate ALL data. Aging out isn't an option. Keeping the server around is also not an option.
Can I do as the migration guide states
http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/6.4.0/Installation/MigrateaSplunkinstance
and just copy the $SPLUNK_HOME directory and install Splunk over the top? That just seems too easy.
Will the new host join the cluster automagically?
Will I get duplicate data from the clustered buckets?
Do I need to decommission from the indexer cluster, migrate just the standalone buckets and then add the new host to the cluster?
If so, how would I know what buckets are the standalone buckets only?
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!

I am attempting to monitor a file that is fairly large and on a UNC file share. It appears that the file only indexes up to the point at which I reboot the Splunk indexer that is monitoring the file. I am not using a universal forwarder. I configured the file input directly from a Splunk indexer/search head.
How would I make Splunk continue to monitor the file and add the data from after the Splunk reboot?
The file also grows extremely large. Growing to over 200 meg.
The source is a NetApp CIFS XML formatted log file.
Thanks in advance,

Much googling and trial and error got me to a solution. Hopefully someone hits this answer in the future and doesn't have to go through what I did.
To get the script above to work I had to call it with another script. I called it kickoffresetmcvpn.sh and the contents are:
#!/bin/bash
unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/opt/splunk/bin/scripts/resetmcvpn.sh
Make sure you enter the full path to the script you want this script to run. That caused me an hour of problems when I was running this in the same directory from the CLI, but it wasn't working from the triggered alert.
From the CLI I verified but entering /opt/splunk/bin/splunk cmd /opt/splunk/bin/scripts/kickoffresetmcvpn.sh
The end result of script kicking off the other script is that I can set a triggered alert to login to the firewall and reset a tunnel when the ping monitor shows the VPN status as down.

I am able to run my script resetmcvpn.sh with no issues from the ubuntu command line. The code below:
#!/usr/bin/expect -f
spawn ssh admin@10.2.1.59
expect "assword:"
send "thepassword\r"
expect "#"
send "config vdom\r"
expect "#"
send "edit root\r"
expect "#"
send "diagnose vpn tunnel reset 'my tunnel'\r"
expect "#"
send "exit\r"
The splunk triggered alert is not working for this. When I run:
/opt/splunk/bin/splunk cmd /opt/splunk/bin/scripts/resetmcvpn.sh
I get the error:
ssh: /opt/splunk/lib/libcrypto.so.1.0.0: version `OPENSSL_1.0.0' not found (required by ssh)
I have tried the solutions posted in other answers, but they require bash where I believe I am using expect? (I only know linux from what I can get from google)
Any help is MUCH apprectiated.

Splunk may be reading the time stamp as a string. Try this solution from the link theou provided :
For example, when Splunk indexes your data, it looks for a timestamp of the DATETIME datatype. If your timestamp is a string value (such as VARCHAR, NVARCHAR, etc.), you can try to convert the timestamp to the correct datatype using a custom SQL statement with CAST, CONVERT, or TO_TIMESTAMP functions.

You have a space in your time stamp format. Try throwing quotes around the string.

In your props.conf do
[sourcetype]
EXTRACT-prsnl_id = (?i)<prsnl_id>(?P<prsnl_id>[^<]+)
Where prsnl_id is the xml tag you would be trying to create the key value pair.

You can reindex with the new source, but once it is indexed Splunk is going to keep the events indexed as it was received. Which is why best practice would be to set up a test index you can use to verify you data is coming in as expected.

When piping fields into a table, the table eliminates extra spaces inside the field.
For example:
person_name="Smith MD, John" |table person_name
^^ (Two Spaces)
returns
Smith MD, John
^ (One Space)
This is terrible for forms when going from a broad * search to a single name search as copy/paste returns no results.
How do I get a table to return the field with ALL spaces that were in the raw event?

It isn't a solution, it is THE solution. You will run into that issue if you use an LDAP browser or any other tool that requires LDAP integration. You need to fix it from the LDAP server, not the LDAP client.
Try downloading Softerra LDAP Browser. Query your OUs/groups that have over 1000 members and you will see the issue.

Do you have a load balancer in your environment? If so, you just put the same forwarder config on 2 different machines. Point the firewalls at the balancer, balancer at the forwarders, and the forwarders will send the data to the indexers.
