gjanders / splunkversioncontrol Goto Github PK

Today I setup your add-on and it worked amazing other then one thing. It completely wiped my repo. Now some of that was my fault as I did not realize I had to start with a clean repo.

Our repo has a number of folders. One example (starting easy) is a HF folder where I want to back up everything from our Heavy Forwarder.

Is there a way in your app I can specify the git folder location I want the app to use or does it need an entire repo per component?

I did try and read your document’s but any info or feedback would be fantastic.

Thank you.

I'm not able push the objects into my remote git repository. I have configured SSH on my github account as well as on the splunk server machine.

I'm able to clone the repository via the git bash. Below are the configurations:

I'm getting the below error while saving the configurations on the splunk:

Gitusername: samules8
Splunk Username: marlonsamuels
Windows System Username: Jackson

Need more info on the below points:

Hello,

Could you pls assist me, Why am i getting the below error?

From the backend of this server, I am able to clone the repo without any issue

Thanks,

HI @gjanders,

Trying to setup this app on a lab system with SHC and a HF (which is where the SpluVerCon will live)..

A couple of questions:

1. What values are valid in the includeEntities/excludeEntities input field? Can you put a wildcard to pull all objects?

2. What about includeOwner/excludeOwner? Can you put a wildcard here?

I couldn't find an obvious step by step guide on how to set this up. Do you have an example on how to get this backing up to github?

App is installed, as is git but that's as far as i got.
No idea if i should be creating a new github repo, generating a PAT token, or which directory to checkout the repo to etc.

Hello,

After following the steps to configure the git backup, i noticed an error when i'm trying to save the modular input in SplunkVersionControlBackup:

Splunkd daemon is not responding: ('Error connecting to /servicesNS/nobody/SplunkVersionControl/data/inputs/splunkversioncontrol_backup/splunk_backup: The read operation timed out',)

We use the app to backup a SplunkCloud instance from a remote Splunk instance. I have port 8089 opened.

My question is if the srcuser (used when create modular input) should have only api role or an admin role is needed as well and that's why I'm are getting the errors listed above?

Thank you,

Andreea

I am getting the below error when attempting to Add Data for splunkversioncontrol-backup modular input:

I have attempted with several different repos on both github and bitbucket, error is the same. Output of splunkversioncontrol_backup.log:

When I run the <git ls-remote .> command from the server the app is on, output is what you would expect:

I also viewed network traffic using tcpdump, and when attempting to save the Data Input, where this validation occurs, there is no network request to the remote repository when receiving this error, so the issue is something with my configuration on the server, I think...

I would so greatly appreciate any thoughts on resolving this issue!

Good afternoon. Due to restrictions in place, I am unable to set up a git server in my environment, but was hoping to use this app with a local git repo.

Unfortunately, I can't get past setting configs, since ls-remote fails when trying to point to a filesystem URI.

From the debug logs:
2022-04-05 16:17:13,143 root DEBUG useLocalAuth enabled
2022-04-05 16:17:13,143 root DEBUG git_command now has GIT_SSL_NO_VERIFY=true because disable_git_ssl_verify: 1
2022-04-05 16:17:13,143 root DEBUG Begin OS process run of GIT_SSL_NO_VERIFY=true git ls-remote file:////home/splunk/repository

Hopefully there is a simple way to make this work.

Hello,

for Splunk version 8.0.4, SplunkVersionControl 1.1.0

I encounter an issue concerning restoration !
Items are correctly exported to Git server but impossible to restore them.

Here's the log of a failed object restoration attempt in splunkversioncontrol_postversioncontrolrestore.log

Any idea of the issue cause ?
How can I check that REST API for restoration is correctly installed ?
Thanks !

When I try to create the backup data input, I get a 404 not found error when submitting the input configuration form.

Splunk version: enterprise 8.0.1
SplunkVersionControl version: 1.0.9

How to reproduce:

• create a new splunk version control backup data input
• set srcURL to http://my-splunk-instance:8000
• set srcUsername and srcPassword to the login credentials
• set other fields
• click "Next"

expected: data input created
actual: a red message containing the splunk-generated "404 Not Found" HTML page.

Hi,

Thanks for the great work you made.

When I configured the input, I had the message that OPENSSL 1.0.0 was not found.

To make it works, I had to add the following lines in python scripts
os.unsetenv('LD_LIBRARY_PATH')
