I can confirm this issue. If you have previously installed Sideview Utils (perhaps as a dependency), SoS will complain that SideView Utils are not installed. No amount of restarts will help. The solution is to modify [ui] stanza in $SPLUNKHOME/etc/apps/sideview_utils/local/app.conf to contain is_visible = true (was set to is_visible = 0 ). Note: setting it to is_visible = 1 didn't help, I had to use is_visible = true .
