Splunk Enterprise

Problem receiving data

Hello everyone, 

I recently downloaded Splunk Enterprise the free version. I am following a training course where I need to upload a log file and I should be able to see number of events indexed in my system. However, I am not getting any data on my splunk. The data seems to not be indexing properly and keeps saying "waiting for data..". What should I do to fix this?
