Hi ! Testing creating alternate pagesets and it works just fine. I just need to clarify if is not possible to have a special "top" menu present on the alternate pages even if I create a new menu subdirectory with new items on the menu. Also title tag has no efftect on the alternate pages. BR Thomas

bbgen bbtest hobbitd missing

Hello, This is an old subject but I ran into the same issue and was frustrated to see there is no place where I could find the answer...I finally sorted that problem out but it took me a couple of hours to discover the origin of the problem. On May 20th 2005, Lowery Michael wrote: > I have two hobbit servers, one is running 4.01 the other 4.02. The 4.01 > server has columns for the hobbit server named bbgen bbtest and hobbitd > that the 4.02 machine does not list for itself. It does have a bbd > column which is not listed on the 4.01 server for itself. Could you check "hobbitd.log" and see if you don't find any message like this one : 2005-07-01 15:15:43 hobbitd servername MACHINE='localhost' not listed in bb-hosts, dropping hobbitd status It looks like hobbitd status are dropped if your server name is not listed in bb-hosts. I think the name comes from BBSERVERHOSTNAME variable of "hobbitserver.cfg". So you have to either change your bb-hosts so that "localhost" is listed, either change variable BBSERVERHOSTNAME to reflect what's in your current bb-hosts. Hope this helps. -- Gaëtan Frenoy --------------------------------------------------------------------------- This e-mail is confidential.

Hi Henrik Thanks for helping on this. I rebooted this morning. Could the memory leak still effect me in that short time? No "failed allocation" in dmesg output. Do you want the full output?

Could you try running "dmesg" and see if there are any "failed allocation" messages at the bottom ? This should really only list the messages you see during boot-up and any hardware detection that has happened. Also, send me a "vmstat 4 20" output from the box. If you run ~hobbit/server/bin/bb 127.0.0.1 "hobbitdboard" does that hang ?

Hi all Here's an interesting one. I have been running Hobbit for a few months now, and everything has been good. Upgraded to 4.0.3, and all was well. The suddenly, a few days ago, I started getting intermittant errors when I click on the faces/blobs for more information. Sometimes it works, and I get what I want. Other times, it times out and I get "Status not available" on a white screen. I tried the following 1. Restarting Hobbit. 2. Restarting the web server 3. Rebooting the server 4. Upgrading to Hobbit 4.0.4 Still no improvement. Looking again, I can rule out the Web server, because I get the main page, and the column info links on the column description works. I think I can rule out the network, because all the monitored machines are reachable and pingable from Hobbit. I think I ruled out a bug by upgrading to 4.0.4 I am still getting e-mail alerts (some of the time) and graphs are being updated (partially). When it does the "Status not available" trick for long periods of time, it doesn't upgrade the status or the graphs during that period. Any ideas, pointers or tips?

an interesting one. I have been running Hobbit for a few months now, and everything has been good. Upgraded to 4.0.3, and all was well. The suddenly, a few days ago, I started getting intermittant errors when I click on the faces/blobs for more information. Sometimes it works, and I get what I want. Other times, it times out and I get "Status not available" on a white screen. I tried the following 1. Restarting Hobbit. 2. Restarting the web server 3. Rebooting the server 4. Upgrading to Hobbit 4.0.4 Still no improvement. Looking again, I can rule out the Web server, because I get the main page, and the column info links on the column description works. I think I can rule out the network, because all the monitored machines are reachable and pingable from Hobbit. I think I ruled out a bug by upgrading to 4.0.4 I am still getting e-mail alerts (some of the time) and graphs are being updated (partially). When it does the "Status not available" trick for long periods of time, it doesn't upgrade the status or the graphs during that period. Any ideas, pointers or tips?

[hobbit] Status Unavailable

Something else I noticed. Sometimes, the main screen gives me the header and the footer, and no info. No blobs/smileys, no columns, no server names, nothing. Just the menu, the logo, "CURRENT STATUS" and the date at the top, and a line. Then the footer. Line and Hobbit version. It is also on a green background, even though I have at least one test that is reporting yellow.
