Looking for help with Log Observer Connect. I've got Splunk on AWS EC2. In 0lly, I've followed the Set Up Service Account instructions and have secured the web and management port with a self-signed cert. This part is working. I have confirmed the details regarding the indexes, capabilities (including indexes_list_all), resources and tokens. When I attempt the Set Up Observability Cloud step, I fill in the account details and upload or paste the first cert in the chain (myCACertificate.pem, based on the instructions at https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/9.3.1/Security/ConfigureandinstallcertificatesforLogObserver?ref=hk), but I get: Unable to create Splunk Enterprise client.
