Splunk Web Login Issue- Why am I getting this server error?

Hello,

I have created splunk AWS  Linux instance Instance and installed splunk enterprise on it. The install was successful and I am able to reach the login page for splunk web. When logging in, I get an error at the bottom of the page that says "Server Error". All of the necessary ports are open on the server.  I have attached a photo of the Error and the WARN I received in the splunkd logs after each failed login attempt. Any suggestions on a fix would be highly appreciated.   Splunkd Warning after login failures.pngServer Error.png

I resolved the issue by creating a web.conf  in local and allowing https by setting 

enableSplunkWebSSL = true

Thanks for all of your input.

What does your web.conf look like? Are you using slpunk default ssl certs or your own?
