I received this error when I tried to install 'splunk db connect' app.
I have already installed jdk1.8.0_131

I am using splunk enterprise edition 64 bit free trail version.
Splunk db connect app is 32 bit

we are having the same problem! it happened after we patched our windows server, would this have something to do with it?

I just restart the splunkd service, and it works again. not sure why

Hi @jprs032007,

I've passed for the same problem and I resolved this issue enabling the port (9998 or any that you want) in the firewall in my CentOS 7.

firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=9998/tcp --permanent

I hope help you.
