Splunk DB Connect input is not querying from MS SQL Server

Hi,

I'm trying to index database table data to Splunk Enterprise Trial version using Splunk DB Connect 3. Data inputs were created with rising column and scheduled to query table every 5 minutes.

2019-08-05 12:05:24.137 +1000 [dw-53 - PUT /api/inputs/APIQADBLOG] INFO com.splunk.dbx.server.task.DefaultTaskService - action=add_task_to_scheduler task=com.splunk.dbx.server.dbinput.task.DbInputTask@d0d8abbe cron=0 * /5 ? * *

Noticed table data is not getting indexed and checkpoint file is getting deleted based on below logs. Actually the checkpoint log is available physically in machine. Can anyone help
