Why do I see a script error when then the data is not received in Cisco eStreamer eNcore Add-on for Splunk?

[lakshman239]

Installed the Add-on as per eStreamereNcoreOperationsGuide_30.pdf operations guide ( Thanks doughlas for the details). when there is no data received from the sourcefire, we still see the error message "msg="A script exited abnormally" input="./bin/splencore.sh clean" stanza="default" status="exited with code 1". would this go when the data is received or is this an issue?

BTW, 3.5.4 is now the latest version. Bug fixes and huge performance improvements for multi-core installations. New docs too.

Yes, we had our install in a diff dir from '/opt', so had to update splencore.sh SPLUNK_HOME env variable and datfilespath as per our install directory. Then updated clean() function to check for a dir/files (datafilespath) before deleting the log files, as when there are no log/data files, the clean runs and fails.
