I installed a graylog server on CentOS7 (fresh installation). I tried to add inputs using the option ‘System/Inputs \> Inputs \> Select Inputs’, but it says ‘No inputs available’.

Please help!

Hej @rahul

you need to create an Input `System > Inputs` then select in the drop-down the type after that hit `launch new input`.

If you have any more question you should give some more details what you have done and what is not working.

Hi,

I did that in the same way, but dropdown is empty with the message No inputs available. It’s fresh installation.

you should check your graylog server.log for any errors or missing plugins.

Hi,

I have restarted graylog-server service and obtained following logs while starting on /var/log/graylog-server/server.log.

Hi

I don’t have any adblocker / JSBlocker in my browser, I tried on diff browsers as well.

I found one thing. Graylog server is on a NATed environment. I was accessing interface using public IP after doing port forwarding. When I accessed interface with local IP, it worked within network. I have added inputs and started to getting logs also. But when I checked using public IP, I’m not able to see inputs or logs. Did I miss any settings in graylog for NAT? I did port forwarding in below manner. Any more port forwarding required other than this?

PublicIP:9000 =\> LocaIP:9000

your browser need to be able to communicate with the Graylog REST-API.

[look at the documentation about that setup](http://docs.graylog.org/en/2.2/pages/configuration/web_interface.html#making-the-web-interface-work-with-load-balancers-proxies).
