Splunk's latest version 4.1.6 doesn't support Python 2.7 I tried the import trick but it didnt work because the real script which runs under Python 2.7 has import pyodbc so it results in following error c:\Splunk\etc\apps\search\bin>splunk cmd python namelookupWrapper.py memberId memberName < memberInput.csv Traceback (most recent call last): File "namelookupWrapper.py", line 3, in <module> import namelookup File "c:\Splunk\etc\apps\search\bin\namelookup.py", line 7, in <module> import pyodbc ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found. Please let me know if i am missing something on import. If so please provide me with an example -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
