Hello,
I am trying to install SSL certificate for Splunk to permit HTTPS access to the console. As part of the procedure, I have generated the CSR, Key and the signed PEM certificates. I uploaded the files to the Splunk host and created (and edited) the server.conf with the following information
[settings]
enableSplunkWebSSL = true
privKeyPath = /opt/splunk/etc/auth/mycerts/mySplunkWebPrivateKey.key
serverCert = /opt/splunk/etc/auth/mycerts/mySplunkWebCertificate.pem
I also disabled the [sslConfig] stanza in server.conf.
When I try to restart Splunk, the service fails with the following errors. Please advise on how to fix the issue.
WARNING: Cannot decrypt private key in "/opt/splunk/splunk/etc/auth/mycerts/mySplunkWebPrivateKey1.key" with>
Feb 03 17:09:16 frczprmccinfsp1 splunk[1559898]: WARNING: Server Certificate Hostname Validation is disabled. Please see server.conf/[sslConfig]/cliVerifySer>
Thanks in advance.
