Hey @abhi04,

On what port is your splunk web running ? By default it is port 8000. Can you check if the port is open.
Also check splunk status:
/$SPLUNK_HOME$/bin/splunk status if splunkd is running or no.

Let me know if this helps!!

It's running on 8000.splunkd is running.

Can you check internal logs in splunkd.log for any error?

Getting below error:
Error searchprocessrunner - performed process=/8000 hung up

In netstat -an splunk process is running on 800 and 8089 right?
