Change in Database causes FlowReceiver to stop?

I have run into the common problem of running out of disk space (less than 5000 mb error). To fix this, I've attached a 10+Tb drive by changing $SPLUNK_DB within my splunk-start.conf file. I've also exported SPLUNK_DB to the path of the new db location. All this works but when i go into Splunk Stream App to check if I am still getting flows, nothing pops up except an error and FlowReceiver being marked as 'inactive' I'm not sure why this is happening any help would be much appreciated.
