I just installed hobbit monitor 4.2.0 on Solaris 8, hobbit starts fine, but bb.html remains blank, I tired bb2.html and bbnk.html and there is data there. Also tried cgi script find a host, but probably has nothing to do with the main display page, bb.html
This file is created in ~hobbit/data/www/bb.html. Could you see if that file is being created, if it is being updated, and whether it contains any data ? While you're at it, check permissions on the file - it should be writable by the hobbit userid.
Owner is hobbit, file is being created and updated.

This may happen once when Hobbit is started, but it is a problem if it shows up every time bbgen runs (once a minute). Does it ?
It does repeat every minute.
What happens if you run this command as the hobbit user:
bbcmd bbgen
Same as in the logs.

The problem with your CGI programs is probably the /usr/local/lib not being in the default library search path. Simplest solution is to use the "crle" utility to add /usr/local/lib to the system default library search path. Alternatively, put LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib export LD_LIBRARY_PATH in /etc/hobbit/hobbitcgi.cfg. You can also put that LD_LIBRARY_PATH setting into hobbitserver.cfg (without the "export" line) for the benefit of the other Hobbit utilities.
I looked back at other hobbit monitors I installed here on Solaris and found the cgi problem was resolved using the LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
