After uploading the 3 files as per the instructions, I am supposed to see my events but there is nothing on the page even when I am logged in as admin or power user.

Same here...uploaded 3 files into Splunk w/o issue but they don't appear as having been so as nothing to search upon.  Expanded data to "all time" as well.

Ok, found an email address to Splunk Education team (elearn@splunk.com) ...and submitted my question; here is the response:

"Hello Ed,

You may proceed to the next module/lab. The information indicating the number of events to indexed does not appear on this page in this version of Splunk.

I have since been able to perform a search & find data from these 3 lab files.  BTW, I'm running the Windows version on my desktop.

Hope this helps somebody, I could have used this guidance last week.

Hi,

 

try to expand your timerange and if you don't specify the index name splunk automatically puts your data on the index=main.
