Explanation

When using the Deployment Server to push apps to Universal Forwarders (or other forwarders), the apps must be placed in $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/deployment-apps on the Deployment Server. This directory is specifically designated for apps that the deployment server will distribute to clients. The $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps directory on the deployment server contains apps running locally on that server itself, not apps intended for distribution. The forwarder receives and installs the app upon deployment but is not the staging location before deployment.
