Riemann-dash not showing anything

I am new to riemann. I am facing an issue which i guess would be trivial but not able to find the solution. I am not getting any data on the riemann dashboard. I have followed the exact steps said in riemann.io/howto.html My riemann.config file

localhost:4567 page content

Can anyone tell how to get things started. i even did

sudo netstat -nlp | grep 5555 and got one entry for tcp and one entry for udp. Because of low reputation points cant upload more links for the image.

first put an expression in your config that prints statements and then indexes them:

(streams 
   ...
   prn
   index
   ...)

and make sure they are getting indexed.

then add a graph to your dash showing the service "riemann index size" and make sure that this index which exists by default is getting to dash and that it has a non-zero number.

the events really are not getting to dash, then connect with any of the clients and make sure you can run queries. I prefer the python client for this because it has a nice CLI for doing this from the terminal.

always check the box in the upper right of the Riemann dash and make sure it has the correct server name. I have also had to configure riemann to bind to 0.0.0.0:5556 before it would accept queries when it was not running on the same host or when it was running on the same host though in a docker container.

and last of all, consider moving to something other than dash for graphing these things as people often out-grow it quickly anyway.
