SSL test flapping after latest snapshot
I upgraded a rather old hobbit install that I have (I don't remember what version, it was an early beta), and afterwards an HTTPS test I had against a host started flapping (see attached screenshot). Is there a recommended way for me to diagnose this problem? Otherwise my next plan is to completely wipe the old install except for the RRD files, then build and install the latest snapshot again.

Okay so I went through with my plan to wipe everything and reinstall.
Now I have a new problem. The statuses for the hobbit server itself,
specifically cpu, disk, files, memory. msgs, and procs have all turned
purple.
I'm seeing these errors in my hobbid.log: 2006-07-20 11:55:51 Bogus status message contains no data: Sent from hobbitd 2006-07-20 11:56:52 Bogus status message contains no data: Sent from hobbitd 2006-07-20 11:57:54 Bogus status message contains no data: Sent from hobbitd

I *think* these are caused by a test going purple, but it is odd that these messages have no data.
Could you try applying this patch ? It won't change the behaviour, but it will log the host- and test-name of the status that it complains about.

What kind of error does it report for the failed tests ?
If you login as the hobbit user and run
bbcmd bbtest-net --debug HOSTNAME
where HOSTNAME is the name of the flapping host, then it will dump a lot of info about how it connects to the host and what happens during the test. Comparing these for a failing and a succesful test could give a clue about what happens.
The odd thing is that it's flapping like that. I could understand if it would completely fail; I've seen that happen with a few SSL implementations I test where upgrading the OpenSSL library caused it.
