I have a problem with the DB Connect 1.1.4, with the "Connecting to databases stopped" message.
Have restarted splunk, but the service did not return. Was operating normally after a restart splunk stopped working.
What can be done to fix the problem?
Connections to the databases are stopped.
Versions:
*DBX
Splunk DB Connect 1.1.4

*Java
/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.7.0-openjdk-1.7.0.9.x86_64/jre

Thank you in advance for your assistance.
Kind regards,

Can you please check error in splunkd.log OR jbridge.log?

One more setting you can disable
In /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.7.0-openjdk-1.7.0.9.x86_64/jre/lib/security/java.security
