stupid question maybe, but did you specify the full "https://" in the url?

Hi,

did you secure your splunk web? than you will need https:// infront.

do you have access to the server splunk is running on?

If so check splunk is actually running. Log into your CLI and in $SPLUNK_HOME/splunk/bin type ./splunk status.

If its running, try a restart ./splunk restart and see if there are any errors in the start up.

Hi,
After you try the solutions specified by dkeck and if your splunk is running after seeing the splunk status, then after restarting just check that splunk is available on which port.
- Default splunk web port is 8000. Check the $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/system/local/web.conf for port settings:
mgmtHostPort = 127.0.0.1:8089
httpport = 8000

Run the following command: ./splunk show web-port ./splunk show splunkd-port
You can also check if port 8000 is already use by some other application

Hey @vazid

did you enabled the port 8000 in the security groups in AWS its seems the issue is more at AWS side and not on splunk
