Hi all,

Just to inform that now it is working.

Before i was just using the "DEFINE" in the start of Javascript file indicating the usage of SearchManager.js:

define([
'underscore',
'backbone',
'jquery',
'splunkjs/mvc',
'splunkjs/mvc/searchmanager',
'splunkjs/mvc/simplexml/element/table'
], function(_, Backbone, $, mvc, SearchManager, TableElement) {

I have included the below variable forcing to use the SearchManager lib:

        var SearchManager = require("splunkjs/mvc/searchmanager");

After this inclusion, the function startSearch() began to work fine.

Thanks all
