Getting Data In

Why am I unable to upload the Splunk Tutorial zip file?

I am unable to upload tutorialdata.zip: read timeout error. It hangs at "processing" after following the tutorial steps. I've tried moving the file to root directory. There doesn't seem to be any error reported it just times out.
"Upload failed with ERROR : Read Timeout "

I'm running Splunk Enterprise on Ubuntu 16.04 and using Firefox.

Resolved, the server limited indexing due to disk space < 5000mb. Interestingly it did upload the file even with the above error.
