Run "<CODE>splunk stop</CODE>" (NOT "<CODE>splunkd stop</CODE>", splunkd is not meant to be run directly by users), then clean out your index(es).</P> Sun, 23 Jun 2013 18:16:37 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Having-trouble-cleaning-index-data/m-p/72400#M14763 Ayn 2013-06-23T18:16:37Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Having-trouble-cleaning-index-data/m-p/72401#M14764 <P>The warning about libssl is almost certainly because you are trying to run <CODE>splunkd</CODE> directly, instead of <CODE>splunk</CODE>. </P> Mon, 24 Jun 2013 02:35:11 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Having-trouble-cleaning-index-data/m-p/72401#M14764 gkanapathy 2013-06-24T02:35:11Z
