I have installed the Splunk Website Monitoring app, however I am getting an issue. Basically on the setup page I keep getting the error message shown below. I have cleared the browser cache/tried different browsers/stopped services/restarted Splunkd/reduced RAM being used to drop by 50%.
Encountered the following error while trying to update: Splunkd daemon is not responding: (u'Error connecting to /servicesNS/nobody/website_monitoring/apps/local/website_monitoring/setup: The read operation timed out',)
Is anybody abel to help me with this please?
Cheers

| rest /services/admin/website_monitoring | transpose
I then added the URLs which I wanted to monitor and all is working
