Email settings missing from the server settings UI

demiaj

My email settings are missing from the server settings page (picture 1 below). I looked through every conf and xml file I could think of and can't seem to find what controls this. I compared the existing conf files between my search head and my deployment server (where it is visible, picture 2 below) and can't find the offending setting. I copied the same URL from my deployment server and changed the host name to my search head and get a 404 error. Any ideas?

Update: Updated to 7.1.1 and the problem persists. Stopped the Splunkd service and preformed an installation repair, problem persists.

I've seen this happen sometimes, but I have never figured out why.
If you have a valid support contract, I'd say this would be the time to make use of it. 😉

I've continued to search when time has been available but no love so far. Any ideas?

No, just a single search head.

I've tried it with my LDAP integrated which has Admin role and the Admin user itself.
