The error message is indicating that the index is not available.

Did you restart the indexer after installing the new TA app? Indexes do not become available until after the indexer is restarted, unless the index was created via the Splunk GUI.

You can restart splunkd using the deployment server, or you can manually restart the indexer(s).
