1) I have no access to reply to your comments.
when I click submit button always ask - do you want to open or save add.json from answers.splunk.com

2) not sure how to check firewall blocking !?

3) yes - correct port number is configured as per documentation in Jenkins

4) I can open the same in webbrowser

thanks for the reply.
FYI - my Jenkins and splunk installed in my laptop - ie localhost

telnet PC93274 8088 ==> gives no error.

"failed: Connection refused: connect" usually means there is a firewall blocking the port or the server you're connecting to isnt listening on that port.

You could try 'telnet PC93274 8088' at a terminal to see if you get a "connection refused" error there too.

You could try curl as well.

On the server youre connecting to you can run netstat -an to see if 0.0.0.0 (or the IP of that server) is LISTENING on 8088.

If you have a networking team, you'll probably want to contact them for assistance.

try use 127.0.0.1 as hostname which will bypass firewall. If it is still not work, I guess you didn't configure http event collector correctly, To enable it, go to Splunk Settings > Data inputs > HTTP Event Collector.
Then click the Global Settings button in the upper-right corner.
You can configure HTTP Port number and SSL on the Global Settings.

Why did you mark your answer as the solution?

Is windows firewall blocking the connection?

Do you have the correct port number?

Can you open the same in a web browser?

So is the problem solved?
