Eventgen not starting in standalone mode

[asmithHPE]

Issue:
I am invoking eventgen by running “splunk_eventgen -v generate path/to/eventgen.conf”. I have attached the current configuration file that we are attempting to use. The sample file is sitting in the “samples” folder where it should be. When I try to start eventgen up there are no errors, no log files generated, nothing – it simply just goes to the next line on the command line ready to receive the next command. Nothing shows up when I try to display what is actively running on the system. So, I am at a loss for what I need to do to get this functional.

OS:
CentOS 7.8
Eventgen:
7.1.1
eventgen.conf:
[sample_seed]

Instead of earliest = 5s try earliest = -5s.

its generating data just fine, but its just not leaving to the assigned ip

@asmithHPE we have fixed the logging in the 7.2.0 release. By default, they should be generated under the splunk_eventgen python site-package path in a "logs" directory.
I don't see any glaring issues with your httpevent configuration. Have you tried using "https" protocol / are you sure you need "http"?
