I'm in General Settings. I Enabled SSL (HTTPS) in Splunk Web. I restarted Splunk. It reads unable to connect. Warning Potential Security Risk Ahead because it is a self sign certificate. I pressed on Go Back Button(Recommended) when I should of pressed advanced and continue. Now All I get is a window That reads Unable to Connect. The Warning Potential Security Risk Ahead window is no longer available. I can't press advanced and continue. What do I do? I can't access Splunk. The connection was reset it says.

I'm also a beginner. Please speak to me like I know very little.  Because that's where I'm at. But I think it's an error with either the certificate/the certificate chain or in decrypting it
