https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Enable-HTTPS-on-SPLUNK/m-p/40932#M7595 <P>It appears that restarting the services and restarting the machine didn't truely restart Splunk. When I went into web management and restarted splunk from the web browser, the settings then seemed to take effect. </P> Wed, 09 Feb 2011 03:35:29 GMT jsereda 2011-02-09T03:35:29Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Enable-HTTPS-on-SPLUNK/m-p/40931#M7594 <P>I've been trying to get Splunk to use HTTPS on my server, however, the settings are not taking place.<BR /> I'm following this guide <A href="http://www.splunk.com/base/Documentation/latest/admin/SecureaccesstosplunkwithHTTPS" rel="nofollow">http://www.splunk.com/base/Documentation/latest/admin/SecureaccesstosplunkwithHTTPS</A> I've tried enabling from the Web GUI first, and the settings stick, meaning I can restart the Splunkd and Splunk web services and navigate to the General Settings page and still see the settings I'm trying to use. But I can't access the Web page with those settings. It just uses the original "non-ssl encrypted" settings.<BR /> I've also tried to change the settings in the web.conf file and again, they seem to stick, but are still not active.<BR /> I always restart the two mentioned services when making the changes, and even tried to reboot the server with no luck. I am using Server 2008 R2.<BR /> Thanks. </P> Wed, 09 Feb 2011 01:42:31 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Enable-HTTPS-on-SPLUNK/m-p/40931#M7594 jsereda 2011-02-09T01:42:31Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Enable-HTTPS-on-SPLUNK/m-p/40932#M7595 <P>It appears that restarting the services and restarting the machine didn't truely restart Splunk.
