    Hi,

    Don't have a solution at hand. But some questions to rule some things out (or in).

    Is this a distributed Environment?

    Which Version?

    What kind of license?

    Is cribl running as user cribl and does it own all files in the cribl home directory and subdirectories?

    Can you share a screenshot of the error and provide the config of the notification?

    Everything commited/deployed? (should be the first check for all issues
