MegSplunk, are you forwarding your data from your search head? I had the same issue that was caused by an error in the configuration in outputs.conf. The error I had was an incorrectly configured path to the certificates, causing SSL connection to the indexers to fail. So, if forwarding from a search head, check that your forwarding is working.

Perhaps the original poster does not need the answer anymore, but I'm hoping MegSplunk can benefit.
