Error in essinstall command

Hello

Splunk Enterprise Server 8.0.5

ES: splunk-enterprise-security_620.spl

I proceeded to install exactly as indicated on the page

https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/ES/6.2.0/Install/InstallEnterpriseSecurity

 

I restart the server and access via web and I see the APP I start the SETUP process and I get the error message

“Error in 'essinstall' command: install_apps failed - Splunkd daemon is not responding: ('Error connecting to /services/apps/local: The read operation timed out',)”

 

I see that other people have presented the same error and a link is shared where they refer to compatibility issues

https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/VersionCompatibility/current/Matrix/CompatMatrix


compatibility exists but error persists
