Login as the hobbit user, then run ./server/bin/bbcmd bbgen --debug | less A bit into that log is where bbgen tries to fetch the current status from the Hobbit daemon. It looks like this:

Does it report the right IP-address as the 'Recipient' ?

Telnet to localhost as well as 127.0.0.1 work, yes. The hobbitdboard returns a lot of data.
I've literally been looking at this for hours, I don't know what else is wrong. I even did a completely fresh install, dropped in my bb-hosts, same results. I know bb-hosts is OK since it's working elsewhere (I did change the bbd line of course).

Can you telnet to 127.0.0.1 port 1984 ? If that times out, then you have a seriously heavy firewall setup. Something like iptables -I INPUT 1 -i lo -j ACCEPT iptables -I OUTPUT 1 -i lo -j ACCEPT should cancel out any paranoid firewall setups locally on the box, for the loopback-interface.
Can you do a "~hobbit/server/bin/bb 127.0.0.1 hobbitdboard" and get any data back ?
If you're running all of the network tests locally, I think you can get away with setting BBSERVERIP="127.0.0.1" in your hobbitserver.cfg, and let all of the communications happen on the loopback-interface. Of course, for clients to work you'll need to get port 1984 opened up for access from the clients. But loopback should be ok for just getting the Hobbit server up and running.

I thought of that, eventually, and corrected the error. Same problem. localhost is responding on 1984, but the site's firewall is blocking

I don't have any clients connecting at the moment, so I don't imagine this is a problem, but thought I would mention it.

Check the IP-adresses for the Hobbit server in the hobbitserver.cfg file. From your logs, it seems that the query to fetch the current

status from the Hobbit daemon goes to the wrong server (the old IP, probably), so there is no response and therefore the webpages dont get any hosts listed.

I got an account on a new virtual host (debian 3.1 on virtuozzo), and dropped in a tar of my hobbit dir. I figured I could just edit bb-hosts and be up and running in minutes. Hours later, I'm still not up.
OK, so I was missing fping, and rrdtool. Hobbit did not like the older rrdtool 1.X under debian stable, so I switch to testing, upgraded, and recompiled and reinstalled hobbit. It's still not working, even with a simplified bb-hosts.
hobbit runs, but the webpage output is devoid of any host data. I can't figure out what else could be wrong, this should have been a very simple port.
