Why is my "hello, world!" program not running after following instructions on http://dev.splunk.com/view/SP-CAAAERB (create custom splunk view)?

[chethan_kumar01]

I have literally followed instructions provided in http://dev.splunk.com/view/SP-CAAAERA and http://dev.splunk.com/view/SP-CAAAERB, to create an app and a custom splunk view. And, I have maintained same file name and folder structure. However, I'm not able to see 'Hello World' printed on the custom view or on console.

Splunk version: 6.2.5
Folder structure of .JS files: C:\Program Files\Splunk\etc\apps\customviewtutorial\appserver\static

Cache was the culprit here. After clearing the cache, issue got resolved!

I just ran through the tutorial - did you restart Splunk?

[chethan_kumar01]

It might be that the referenced javascript file (customview.js) could not be located by Splunk, even though it's located in C:\Program Files\Splunk\etc\apps\customviewtutorial\appserver\static.

I faced similar problem when I tried creating a dashboard as per instructions provided in "http://dev.splunk.com/view/SP-CAAAE4M\"

Yes, I did restart Splunk. Also, I ran a '.../debug/refresh' URL to refresh Splunk Web to load the changes to the JavaScript files. However, it didn't help either.
