splunk helpers are running (PIDs: 22761).
splunkweb is running (PID: 22823).

When I try to connect to splunk server using web interface,I get errors and I can't connect.

Please can you tell me where is error?

Make sure that you don't have firewall / iptables issues.


Take a look at this site to turn off iptables.

have you checked $SPLUNK_HOME/var/log/splunkd.log to make sure there were no obvious errors?
