Because thats what a light forwarder is, as above, go read the documentation!

Find the reason:
If i enable SplunkLightForwarder,it will not start Splunk web service
i modify $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps//SplunkLightForwarder/(local|default)/app.conf and set "state = disabled." and restart the splunk service,then it works.

Anyone can explain why so?

If Splunk Light Forwarder is enabled, Splunk Web is automatically disabled.
See documentation.
