Hello. I've been following this tutorial (https://www.batchiq.com/nifi-configuring-ssl-auth.html) to the best of my ability, yet the web UI still does not want to start. I get the error message ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED" when trying to access the nifi server through Google Chrome. It has also been this way when trying to access through Firefox, so I suppose this is more of a server error than anything else. The following is a relevant section of my conf file...
# web properties #
nifi.web.war.directory=./lib
#nifi.web.http.host=
#nifi.web.http.port=8080
nifi.web.http.network.interface.default=

And here is the part of my log where the error message shows up...

Could anyone please help?
