I just had customer with similar issue on Windows HF. First there was the problem of expired cert. This was not just the /opt/splunk/etc/auth/server.pem but also the pfx file in same location, And because of the way certs are managed on Windows in Splunk 9.x it was also necessary to delete via Windows Cert Management in Local / Personal / Certificates...Delete SplunkServerDefaultCert This got us past the expired cert issue... But then we found mongod.log detected Mongo version as "db version v4.2.19".... But then a few lines later complained about.... F CONTROL [initandlisten] ** IMPORTANT: UPGRADE PROBLEM: Found an invalid featureCompatibilityVersion document (ERROR: BadValue: Invalid value for version, found 3.6, expected '4.2' or '4.0'. Contents of featureCompatibilityVersion document in admin.system.version: { _id: "featureCompatibilityVersion", version: "3.6" So we had to cd to Splunk_Home/var/run/splunk/kvstore_upgrade Renamed versionFile42 to versionFile42.old Run the standalone migration command again... splunk migrate migrate-kvstore Start Splunk, KVStore working!
