Getting Data In

Where to start debugging why Splunk receiver is not getting data from universal forwarder?

Path Finder

From this line in the splunkd.log it appears the forwarder and receiver are connected?

/opt/splunkforwarder/var/log/splunk# vim splunkd.log 
04-02-2012 19:54:28.351 +0000 INFO  TcpOutputProc - Connected to idx=10.140.13.XX:9997

But I dont see any indication on the receiving splunk web application that it is receiving new data?

Where should I begin debugging?
