I have installed Splunk-lite on my Windows Server 2008 R2 VM but cannot logon to the app using my credentials (which work for the website)... Any ideas please?

Thanks and regards,

Steve

If you are an older version, the default user is admin and the password is changeme. If you are on a later release, it forced you to pick a username and password when you installed so use that.

Thank you - I managed to guess the username "Admin" after trying several different possibilities.
I would have been nice if the installer had told me that I should use the name "Admin" and not the username I registered!
Best Regards,

Steve

Hi SJRNet

Use the password you gave, while installing the splunk, this is different from splunk website credentials.

Thanks
