Hi.
For some reasons, I turned off SSL for Splunk REST API. Everything is fine, except the Splunk DB Connect app.
jbridge is failing to start, after the SSL change:

According to the documentation, EnableSplunkdSSL=true is a mandatory configuration setting.
From: http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/DBX/1.0.11/DeployDBX/Installtheconnector
Configure Splunk DB Connect
"Note: To run DB Connect successfully, splunkd HTTPS must be enabled. In the $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/system/default/server.conf configuration file, enableSplunkdSSL must be set to true:
[sslConfig]
enableSplunkdSSL = true"
hi.
a new version of dbx (1.1) was released, but this constraint is still alive.
won't this issue be fix sometime? is there any significant rationale for this?
I was able to reproduce and opened DBX-195. I will update here when I have more information.
Hi. do you have any time estimation for this to be solved and officially released?
