Hello All,

I have the following error:

Encountered the following error while trying to update: Splunkd daemon is not responding: (u"Error connecting to /servicesNS/nobody/Splunk_TA_snow/apps/local/Splunk_TA_snow/setup: ('The read operation timed out',)",)

I have been trying from past hour refreshing, restart and log out (I'm testing this in my local Splunk version) but none of them seem to work.

I am on windows machine if that is something we should consider.

Can some one please help me out with this error.

Thanks

Try to run the following command to see if you can find out what is causing the issue.

index=_internal source="*splunkd.log" AdminManagerExternal

Hi

Getting the same when trying to change or update a local event log collection.

I started out by setting up local logging. I selected all possible windows events - perhaps this was a bit too eager as it zapped up my entire free quota for the day. 

I then tried to remove some event types, but have been getting that error ever since.

Any ideas on how to fix this?
