no web access

[james_wattnem]

I have a CentOS server that is in a virtualized environment. I installed Splunk using the rpm -i "splunk file". It installed correctly and gave me all the correct information, yet I cannot log in using the web URL. I checked all processes and I have splunkd installed. I check to see if phython was also install. yet I do not see splunkweb on the system. What do I do to fix the problem.

Well splunkweb is actually a python based web server called cherrypy so in your list of processes you should have a splunkd plus something like python -O /opt/splunk etc etc.

Also its worth noting that it uses its own instance of Python, you don't need another independant install.
In your case, if you've done a ./splunk start and the ./splunk status command shows everything running, you probably just need to add a firewall rule for port 8000 on the CentOS box. On a new install by default it should probably be blocking it.
