I've seen a similar behavior. In version 4.2.0 standard (no patches).

Sometimes, when viewing full history and clicking one of the non-green historical dots, it will try to download bb-histlog.sh rather than execute it. But I've only seen this using Firefox, never with IE. And only when clicking non-green dots. Green ones always execute the script. I figured it wasa browser issue, but that does't explain why it always works with the green dowts but not the other colors.

We're seeing a weird bug in the 3/27/08 snapshot. When you click on the info column for a host who's status color is purple, the web browser tries to download the "bb-hostsvc.sh" script instead of executing it. This doesn't happen when the host is any other color.

Anyone else seen this?

I am using 4/5/08 snapshot and info icon worked OK. I was able to duplicate the problem. I turned off my hobbitclient and waited for client statuses to go purple. Then I got the error by clicking on the info icon. I think it may happen before it turns purple too, if the hobbit server is restarted with the client not reporting or after about 10-15 minutes. When I uncomment the hobbitclient process the info icon works again.

What I am also seeing that is similar is when I click on any yellow cpu icons in status history or event log report it wants to download bb-histlog.sh.

I went back and checked 65 events since the 5th and these links have the same problem. Seems a little random at the moment.
