Quick question here. We have the SplunkForwarder installed on a couple of Windows servers and need to know what version it is. Unfortunately, the servers have multiple msi files so we can't do it that way. Simple question, how do I determine what version of SplunkForwarder is installed and running?
From the command line:
cd \Program Files\SplunkUniversalForwarder\bin
.\splunk version
From the command line:
cd \Program Files\SplunkUniversalForwarder\bin
.\splunk version
Yup, The README-splunk.txt file had the information. Thanks.
In my install there's a "README-splunk.txt" at the top level of the SplunkUniversalForwarder directory. That file mentions the version in its text.
But Size is 338 KB.
Sorry, Product version is blank also.
What about "Product version," or is that not there?
Well that was interesting. The splunk.exe Properties comes back and under Details, next to "File version" it's blank.
When I do this, the output goes in the same window. Have you tried opening up the command prompt by right-clicking on it and choosing "Run as Administrator"?
Alternatively, you can just look at the file properties of splunk.exe in that directory and look at "Product version" under the "Details" tab. That'll give you the same info.
aweitzman,
I tried this bit it just pops up a window but doesn't stay around long enough to read anything. Is there a file I can browse?
