I use the following command try to talk to the Splunk search service -  curl -k -u myUser/myPassword  https://xxx.xxx.xx.xxx:8089/services/search/jobs -d search="search *" It returns the xml <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?> <response> <messages> <msg type="ERROR">No users exist. Please set up a user. </msg> <messages> </response>  and the myUser/myPassword  is correctly in the system with Admin access right. Do you have any suggestion about the error?
