We are having issues with the Java Bridge Server. We are running splunk 4.3.4 as a search head in a windows VM. The server got restarted and the Java Bridge Server has not been able to come up.The following is continuously written out to dbx.log:

jbridge.log has this error:

If this error appears in the jbridge.log file, you might have a corrupted persistent store file

To resolve this issue, remove $SPLUNK_DB/persistentstorage/dbx/global, recursively.

then restart the splunk .. it will resolve the issues
