Disable Webserver Startup

If you want to ensure that Splunk never starts its webserver component you will need to create a $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/myinstall/search.user.xml file with the following:


<config>
     <searchconfig>
          <start_web_server>0</start_web_server>
     </searchconfig>
</config>

If you already have a $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/myinstall/search.user.xml file simply insert the <start_web_server>0</start_web_server> tag inside of the searchconfig stanza

This documentation applies to the following versions of Splunk: 2.2 , 2.2.1 , 2.2.3 , 2.2.6 View the Article History for its revisions.
