error while searching host | Error in 'litsearch' command: Your Splunk license expired

[Syeds]

Hello Splunk Support,

When I search in Splunk console. I got an issue as below:

 Error in 'litsearch' command: Your Splunk license expired or you have exceeded your license limit too many times. Renew your Splunk license by visiting www.splunk.com/store or calling 866.GET.SPLUNK.

And I'm using trial license. Could you please help me to troubleshoot? appreciate it.

Hi @Syeds ,

this message means that your license is expired (I don't know if you have a Trial License or a Term License) and your license was transformed in a Free License, so you have only 500MB/day.

Then it says that you exceeded the limit too many times so you are in violation.

This means that your Splunk continues to index your data but you cannot search them.

To solve the issue, you need to buy a license and receive from Splunk a reset license.

Ciao.

Giuseppe
