Login error in Splunk 5.0.1

Hello to all,

I can't login in my Splunk free version 5.0.1.

I remember that I was in Manage app screen, then my session ended. Now, when I try to login, I see this message: "Your session has expired. Log in to return to the system."

My password/user are correct.

Can anyone provide some help?

Thank you in advance.

I have found that browser cache is to blame sometimes. That and having another tab still open that is/was logged into Splunk as well. Clearing out the browser cache should fix your issue.

After restarting the computer Splunk is working. Maybe it was the browser cache, like jguarini suggested.

Thanks.

No, but restarting my computer resolved the problem 🙂 Thank you.

have you tried clearing out the browser cache?
