field extractor app errors

I'm trying to use the field extractor app, but when I click on the Extract Fields workflow, it gives me an error: Stacktrace: Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 397, in initInfoFromWorkflow File "", line 494, in setCurrentIndex ModelException: Ignoring unknown index 'network'

For some reason, it doesn't find my index. I'm running a distributed environment, and this is on a search-head. Does it needs to be installed and run on an indexer? I love the idea of this app, but I've never been able to get it working properly.

I fixed the problem. Update the app to 2.3.

I just updated the Field Extractor app to work in distributed environments, so it works with indexes not on the search head.

Let me know if you see any problems.

Similar problem encountered ... within my instance, the error is:

Stacktrace: Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 397, in initInfoFromWorkflow File "", line 494, in setCurrentIndex ModelException: Ignoring unknown index 'main'

Splunk support is declining to assist, as this is not an "official" app. If anyone is willing to collaborate on figuring this out, let me know...
