I am moving Splunk 6.6.1 to anther empty server.
Because I cannot find Splunk 6.6.1 install package I moved splunk home directly to the new server.
I edited /opt/splunk/etc/system/local/web.conf and inputs.conf using new host name.
I also edited /etc/hosts make it like 127.0.0.1 new host name localhost.
And when I start splunk I got below mesages:
