You need to upgrade the DB Connect app. This is a bug in the lower version of the app and compatibility issue. Please check with the release notes.

Hi,

maybe the port 9998 is already in use by another service? Besides have a look at https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/DBX/3.1.3/DeployDBX/Troubleshooting
