Hello Team,

  My workplace bought Splunk a year ago, and I am self-learning myself with limited access to my office Splunk the tutorial I am learning provides instruction on how to install free Splunk on my home computer, so I installed it today I got the following error within half an hour, how do I exceed the license within 30 minutes I thought the free license is for 60 days.

I do see a lot of posts on the same topic sorry for the duplicate post, can someone tell me how to troubleshoot? Do I have to uninstall and reinstall again?

Hi @rksk 

Splunk Entrerprise Free Licence is valid for 60 days , 

 

I would suggest do complete uninstalltion of splunk in local system and try to install again

Thank you very much, Sanjay!

It worked after I reinstall it,

I got a different issue now, created a separate question not sure if you going to see it or not

The message is

"The maximum number of concurrent historical searches on this instance has been reached."

Before I get this message I was unable to load any data through upload .csv or .txt file, the page shows no data.

Then I mapped the directory itself through settings >> data inputs

the page spins for a long time and on search, I got the below message

"The maximum number of concurrent historical searches on this instance has been reached."

The TCP output processor has paused the data flow. Forwarding to host_dest= inside output group default-autolb-group from host_src=training has been blocked for blocked_seconds=10. This can stall the data flow towards indexing and other network outputs. Review the receiving system's health in the Splunk Monitoring Console. It is probably not accepting data. Learn more.11/9/2022, 1:45:39 AM
