The instructions for this app indicate that you should install the python eggs for the Cisco SDK using easy_install. However Splunk's python installation does include easy_install or other common Python installation utilities. Using a standalone python27 would mean that the collect.py script would be unable to leverage the Splunk python modules.
I've attempted two separate approaches to overcome this problem. I first tried installing a standalone python27 with easy install. I was able to extract the acicobra and acimodel eggs and copy them to Splunks python library, but I ran into issues with the script erroring on dependencies required by the script, (or perhaps by Splunk itself). I also tried installing easy_install using Splunk's python interpreter, but it failed, indicating that it was unable to bring down the dependencies. I'm stuck on both approaches. Has anyone encountered and overcome these issues?
Thank you
