I solved it. I deleted the /opt/splunk/var/lib/splunk/defaultdb/thaweddb directory, and then splunk started without problem. Thanks to stepahnefotso anyways.

Are you the only user on your machine? If not, check if another user did not use the 8000 port on your machine.
You can also think on changing your splunk-web port default value by reading here:
http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/Admin/Changedefaultvalues#Change_network_ports
I'm the only user on my machine. I have changed the port to 9000 how you suggested, but i have the same error messages
Did you change splunkd default port also?
Yes, i changed splunkd default por also
