task server stopped working
Hello
Using Splunk db connect 3.13.0 which worked fine until I've restarted the server
since then the task server is not starting and im getting this error :
message from "/opt/splunk/etc/apps/splunk_app_db_connect/bin/dbxquery.sh" com.splunk.modularinput.Event.writeTo(Event.java:65)\\com.splunk.modularinput.EventWriter.writeEvent(EventWriter.java:137)\\com.splunk.dbx.command.DbxQueryServerStart.streamEvents(DbxQueryServerStart.java:51)\\com.splunk.modularinput.Script.run(Script.java:66)\\com.splunk.modularinput.Script.run(Script.java:44)\\com.splunk.dbx.command.DbxQueryServerStart.main(DbxQueryServerStart.java:95)\\

It could a be several things post restart.
Get some more info from the _internal logs - this may help further investigate and identify the issue
index=_internal sourcetype=splunkd splunk_app_db_connect
index="_internal" sourcetype=splunkd "db_connect" log_level=ERROR
Check the KVstore status
| rest splunk_server=local count=1 /services/server/info
| table kvStoreStatus
OR
$SPLUNK_HOME/bin/splunk show kvstore-status --verbose
Check DB APP permissions
chown -R splunk:splunk $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/splunk_app_db_connect
Sometimes it won’t start due to default certs, as they may have expired, If using the Splunk default certificates, move or rename the file .old etc the $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/auth/server.pem file and restart Splunk to regenerate the certificate.
Check the JAVA server
java –version
Make sure it's compatible

See if there some additional help via troubleshooting page

If that all fails to help resolve the issue, log a support case.
