Proxy settings on the command line and in System Prefs are correct. Is there a log I can look at to see what's going on? Is there a log settings I can change to get more verbosity for this?</P> Wed, 19 Apr 2017 23:06:45 GMT AllanMarcus 2017-04-19T23:06:45Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Security/Why-am-I-unable-to-quot-browse-more-apps-quot-or-install-an-app/m-p/339512#M8634 <P>I just installed Splunk Enterprise on my Mac.

The message that you are seeing normally means that there is a firewall blocking Splunk's access to the internet.</P> <P>You might be able to find more information about this error in one of Splunk's internal logs. On the Mac, you will probably find the internal logs under /Applications/splunk/var/log/splunk. The file splunkd.log is good for most errors, but for this I might scan most of the logs. BTW, all of the logs in this directory are indexed in Splunk: you can run searches again the _internal index to hunt for errors. </P> <P>If all else fails, you can go directly to Splunkbase via a browser and download the files to your Mac. Then in Splunk, choose the option to install the app from a file and point to the file(s) you downloaded...</P> Thu, 20 Apr 2017 00:48:50 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Security/Why-am-I-unable-to-quot-browse-more-apps-quot-or-install-an-app/m-p/339513#M8635 lguinn2 2017-04-20T00:48:50Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Security/Why-am-I-unable-to-quot-browse-more-apps-quot-or-install-an-app/m-p/339514#M8636 <P>I can get to <A href="http://www.splunkbase.com/">http://www.splunkbase.com/</A> from my browser with no issue.</P> Thu, 20 Apr 2017 16:21:13 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Security/Why-am-I-unable-to-quot-browse-more-apps-quot-or-install-an-app/m-p/339514#M8636 AllanMarcus 2017-04-20T16:21:13Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Security/Why-am-I-unable-to-quot-browse-more-apps-quot-or-install-an-app/m-p/339515#M8637 <P>seems like is fw issue.<BR /> But i have issue with proxy, i need to set to go over proxy.<BR /> I done that in shell for update etc. but seems dont work on web...<BR /> where is setup for proxy inside splunk?</P> Thu, 20 Feb 2020 16:27:13 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Security/Why-am-I-unable-to-quot-browse-more-apps-quot-or-install-an-app/m-p/339515#M8637 vmicovic2 2020-02-20T16:27:13Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Security/Why-am-I-unable-to-quot-browse-more-apps-quot-or-install-an-app/m-p/568642#M15626 <P>i have a similar problem and couldnt figure out how to get rid of LOCALHOST 8000 error, which refuses my connection&nbsp;</P> Tue, 28 Sep 2021 03:34:58 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Security/Why-am-I-unable-to-quot-browse-more-apps-quot-or-install-an-app/m-p/568642#M15626 aladagt 2021-09-28T03:34:58Z
