I've recently started using Splunk and it was working fine but at some point seems to have stopped indexing any logs.
I was trying to get a forwarder working so I'm guessing I've done something in trying to get the forwarder working that I've broken the main Splunk.
I've not been able to find anything relevant, everything I've come across (through Google searches) is more of a specific log not being indexed but, in my case, it seems to that every log has stopped.
From the search, I've done index=*
and it only comes back with data from the 19th but I know the logs have been updated for today.
Where can I look for any problems?
Thanks
I seem to have a similar issue, running a standalone environment for 3 days - first two had events indexed but today I have "No results found." Monitoring single file - /var/log/mhn/mhn-splunk.log
This is college project and I seem to got stuck here. When checking splunkd.log I see:
0-21-2018 16:55:59.240 +0000 ERROR JsonLineBreaker - JSON StreamId:201389110879379108 had parsing error:Unexpected character: '-' - data_source="/var/log/mhn/mhn-splunk.log", data_host="ubuntu-s-2vcpu-4gb-ServerLondon-01", data_sourcetype="MHN"
The source file keeps getting populated.
You should post a new question.
You should first look in splunkd
to see if there's any errors. You could do this by looking at the file directly under $SPLUNK_HOME/var/log/splunk/splunkd.log
or from Splunk Web by putting this in the search bar index=_internal sourcetype=splunkd error
What does your Splunk environment look like? Are you in a distributed environment or standalone system? What changes did you make to the Splunk forwarder?
