Splunk Enterprise

After installation of ES over the NFR Splunk Enteprise platform, https secure connection to the platform does not work

Until I install the ES on the enterprise platform I could connect via 127.0.0.1:8000 via secure https connection. However after the ES installation, https stops connecting and I have to connect through non-secure connection.

Changing EnableWebSSL parameter to Yes or No does not have any impact.

How can I connect secure to my NFR Enterprise environment?

Thanks.

Thanks for the feedback.

 

How can I check this?

 

3.web.conf should n't override in the ES App.

Hi @unluakin 

 

use the below btool command and check

 

$SPLUNK_HOME/bin/splunk btool web list --debug

Check web.conf settings

Make sure the following key is present and correct

[settings]
enableWebSSL = true
privKeyPath = $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/auth/mycerts/your_private.key
serverCert = $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/auth/mycerts/your_certificate.pem

 

If you're not using custom certificates, Splunk will default to:

 

privKeyPath = $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/auth/splunkweb/privkey.pem
serverCert = $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/auth/splunkweb/cert.pem

 

And confirm that ES is not over writing web.conf

you can use the below command to find the directory

 

find $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/SplunkEnterpriseSecuritySuite -name web.conf

 

modify the command based on your app setup, if you found any config check the stanza like below

 

[settings]
enableWebSSL = false

 

use the below btool command and validate the stanza

$SPLUNK_HOME/bin/splunk btool web list --debug

Once you modified restart the Splunk services.

 Quick overview:

1.enableWebSSL= true in the /system/local/web.conf

2.Privkeypath and Servercert should be exist and readable

3.web.conf should n't override in the ES App.
