I have checked my connection from my Hunk server using telnet to the mongo server on port 27017, works fine.
The indexes.conf seems to be setup correctly.
[provider:local-mongodb]
vix.mongodb.host = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:27017
vix.command = java
vix.splunk.search.debug = 1
[mongodb_vix]
vix.mongodb.collection = event
vix.mongodb.db = activity
vix.mongodb.auth.mechanism =
vix.mongodb.auth.password =
vix.mongodb.auth.username =
vix.mongodb.field.time = _id
vix.mongodb.field.time.format = objectid
Then I run the following search I get "no results found"
index="mongodb_vix"
Did I miss anything?
