Splunk SimpleResultsTable error

Hey All,

I was wondering if someone could shed light on this error...

[SimpleResultsTable module] Input is not proper UTF-8, indicate encoding ! Bytes: 0xA0 0xA0 0x3C 0x2F, line 312, column 32

Any thoughts welcome.

Regards,

Matt

When does the problem occur? "0xA0" is indeed improper UTF-8 - the input probably has an invalid way of specifying the non-breaking space (or " ") character, which has the unicode code point U+00A0 but needs to be encoded as the two-byte sequence 0xC2 0xA0.

Thanks for the reply Ayn,

The problem appears to occur when generating a table from the inputs, but this only seems to appear first page of results, when I switch to another page all appears fine. The inputs are results from ping tests generated from a python script.

Does this mean my input script needs modifying, or something in a conf file? - I'm a little confused to be honest.
