Universal Forwarder logs:

Hi,

I think there is non ssl connection between forwarder and receiver, in receiver machine I see the log coming as: Initializing connection for non-ssl forwaring to xx.xx.xx.xx:9997
06-10! from src=xx.xx.xx.xx:51352.

Also I have checked outputs.conf file of forwarder and inputs.conf file of receiver, however didn't see any ssl information.

This sounds like you're trying to setup a non-SSL connection to an indexer that expects SSL, or compressed SSL to an indexer that expects non-compressed, or vice versa. You should check your settings in outputs.conf on the forwarder, and inputs.conf on the indexer.
