Getting Data In

Trouble Uploading Splunk Data

I am going through the Splunk Fundamentals 1 coursework and I am hung up on uploading data into the the system. I am using Ubuntu with Splunk 7.0.3 in the Chromium browser. All I am trying to do is upload the sample data that was provided from Splunk for the lab work. When I attempt to upload the data "access_30Day.log" into Splunk it gets hung up uploading the file and than it times out. The file itself is only 30mb so there should be no reason for it to take this long. I have been unsuccessful with getting any data uploaded into the webui and it's preventing me from moving forward with the coursework. Please provide any help. Thank you.
