Hi everyone,

I'm trying to install Splunk through docker.
After running the command,

docker run --name splunk -d -p 8000:8000 -e SPLUNK_START_ARGS=--accept-license -e SPLUNK_PASSWORD=password splunk/splunk:latest

I'm not able to open localhost:8000
Can anyone help me with me with this?
Thanks,
Harika

many explanations there.
