Getting Data In

loginCustomLogo broken link

Hi, has anyone ran into an issue. I accidentally didn't have the .png or .jpg in the /opt/splunk/etc/apps/search/appserver/static/logincustomlogo/ folder after modifying /opt/splunk/etc/system/local/web.conf file when I restarted and got a broken image link. I then dropped the file in the correct folder and restart splunk again but still getting the broken link. I tried setting the custombackground to default so I could remove the web.conf then started the process over but still no luck. Is there something in the static folder that changes and needs to be manually edited?

You have entries like this on your System?

Picture:

./etc/apps/search/appserver/static/logincustombg/monsterine.png

And system/local/web.conf entrys?

[settings]
loginBackgroundImageOption = custom
loginCustomBackgroundImage = search:logincustombg/monsterine.png

And you've checked the logs for any error during startup?
And maybe the importantst part, have you cleared your WebChache?

Thanks Clearing the Web Cache fixed the login screen logo for the two servers I had with broken links.

Hi @dkrichards16,

To display an icon for your app:

  1. Create the icon files below, in PNG format, preferably with 24-bit transparency.
  2. Name the icon files as listed below. Filenames are case sensitive.
  3. Save icon files to $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/your_app_name/static/.

appIcon_2x.png (72 x 72)
appIcon.png (36 x 36)
appIconAlt_2x.png (72 x 72)
appIconAlt.png (36 x 36)
appLogo.png (160 x 40)
appLogo_2x.png (320 x 80)

Please refer below steps from documents:

**Add a custom logo**
If you are using Splunk Enterprise, you can customize the login page logo.

**Prerequisites**
The maximum image size is 485px wide and 100px high. If the image exceeds these limits, the image is automatically resized.
Review the loginCustomLogo setting details in the web.conf spec file.

**Steps**
(Optional) If you are using an image file, put it into the following directory location.
$SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/<app_name>/appserver/static/logo
