Please suggest I am finding difficult in configuing the host on splunk server to monitor apache logs.
I have installed splunk server on debian. I have a web GUI now.
I have installed universalforwader on host (the host where the apachelogs are configured) as per the link below.

Yes you can install the Splunk_TA_Nix on Debian. Follow the instructions here: http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/AddOns/released/UnixLinux/About

This will allow you to monitor the system health. You don't need this app to monitor apache logs though.

All the best.
