[hobbit] Hobbit Installation Issue

18 Nov 2008

      You need to change the system library run path so it looks in
/usr/local/lib.  If this was solaris you would do it like this:
crle -l /usr/lib:/usr/secure/lib:/usr/local/lib
Sadly, I don't know how to do this in Linux.
Alternatively, you might be able to recompile hobbit with a configure
flag telling it where the pcre library is.

I already have libpcre.so installed.
ls -al /usr/local/lib/libpcre.so*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     16 2008-11-13 14:15 /usr/local/lib/libpcre.so
-> libpcre.so.0.0.1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     16 2008-11-13 14:15
/usr/local/lib/libpcre.so.0 -> libpcre.so.0.0.1
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 158684 2008-11-13 14:15
/usr/local/lib/libpcre.so.0.0.1
Do I need to update any hobbit configuration file to get rid of this
"Internal Server Error" ?
Thanks,

Take a look in your Apache log directory.  There should be an
error_log file there with some useful information about what broke.

	I got it working :)

	Here's what I did, I checked
/var/log/hobbit/bb-display.log file and there I saw the following error
message repeating over and over:
bbgen: error while loading shared libraries:
libpcre.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Did google on this error, and found that I needed to
add:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib
to hobbitserver.cfg, and then restart Hobbit.
Which fixed my issue.
But I have another question:
When I click on the status icons. I get the following
error. Is this normal?
	Internal Server Error

	The server encountered an internal error or
misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
	Please contact the server administrator,
webmaster at localhost and inform them of the time the error occurred, and
anything you might have done that may have caused the error.
	More information about this error may be available in
the server error log.

	Note when I did a grep server\/www * in the server/etc/
directory I only got the hobbit-apache.conf.  My output is definitely in
server/www.

		Since you changed the home directory from
/usr/local/hobbit to /home/hobbit, I suspect that there may still be
something pointing to /usr/local/hobbit. Grep through the configuration
files in the Xymon etc directory looking for anything pointing to
/usr/local. You might also check the scripts in bin.

Would you have the capability to recompile the source?

					If the processes are
running and you're not filling that directory with index/bb/bb2.html
files then you probably have the output directory set to another
directory then where that Alias (or Vhost) is pointing.
As was mentioned you do
have to wait a good minute or two before that directory is populated.
In my experience I never have that wait as I wait between every step to
accomplish something else.

Hello everyone,
For the first time, I am trying to install Hobbit on my Ubuntu Linux

Every step went fine but when I started hobbit and typed in the hobbit

the main page, I get the directory structure (see below)? What am I
missing here?
Please assist. Thank you!
