I installed Splunk Enterprise 8 splunk-8.0.0-1357bef0a7f6-linux-2.6-x86_64.rpm but due to low space, I attach new HDD 50GB and created a partition and mounted it on /opt. Then I moved all the data from OLD /opt to NEW /opt of the NEW HDD, But when I tried to restart the splunk service systemctl restart splunk I received this error message:

The Splunk Service is up but I can't access from a browser. When I enter the username and password in Splunk Web GUI; I get this message:

Your network connection may have been lost or Splunk may be down. Your session has expired. Log in to return to the system.

Try to make a backup of etc and var and do a fresh install of splunk on the new drive, then put the folders there. Maybe that could solve the problem
