Splunkweb wont start after reboot on RHEL

I am running RHEL 5.10, I am making it a audit box, pretty much the only thing running on it will be splunk. Every time I have to restart the server, splunkweb will not restart. I have it looking at localhost.localdomain and the proper port. Is there some service I am missing in the start up, it not happening in the proper sequence. Because, I can go to the /splunk/bin folder, type ./splunk start. and it will work fine until I have to turn off the server again.

Besides the ./splunk enable boot-start [-user splunk]
You can check the results chkconfig --list splunk
On which run level will splunk start or not

Nope, I knew it was something simple that I missed, I appreciate it. That solved my issue.
