We were able to setup and run the jmx_ta on the splunk app(web app). It was able to connect and report JMX data from remote servers. But, we want to use that in a distributed system. For that we tried installing the same thing on the splunkForwarder installed on the application nodes. We did same configs as before, but it won't start up and just throw the below error,
01-11-2014 01:29:20.623 +0000 ERROR ModularInputs - Introspecting scheme=jmx: script running failed (exited with code 1).
01-11-2014 01:29:20.623 +0000 ERROR ModularInputs - Unable to initialize modular input "jmx" defined inside the app "jmx_ta": Introspecting scheme=jmx: script running failed (exited with code 1).
We checked JAVA_HOME and SPLUNK_HOME is set fine. Do we need Python set too ? Also is there a guide or specific steps for installing this on the forwarder ?
